Re: CORE

[Kevin Brown <Kevin.Brown@netcomm.ie>]

Hi,

I am ignoring the clock ticking at the moment,,,,

If there is CORBA stuff for a shared registry, then I might get someone to contribute to the code, I have someone
that believes software should be free and we have been playing with CORBA frame
works for customers.

time and time, first I needed to think we need all this quick, and now I see there is
rush rush.

I  am still tumescent that Apple bought NEXT ( WebObjects? CORBA? Registries?)

We need something like a priest for the oversight of CORE......commerce
has no morals.
