If we can get an agreement here and implement it as the defacto
standard, I think we will all be better off.

Maybe we can get IONA and IBM to agree here :) I can attempt to
push it through IBM (and maybe Andy can try BEA).
My personal opinion is that this should go through the JCP. The
reason the original proposal failed was because it was defined in
IDL in order to be supportable on any ORB (i.e. non-Java) and there
were issues with the way this worked. I think this is really a Java
specific problem and therefore should be solved in a java-specific
way. Unfortunately I think protocol dictates that this go through
the OMG ....
Another alternative is to sneak it in via the Java-IDL spec which
already has Java-specific APIs. I suspect this would also be a
breach of protocol :(
