I take it you prefer CORBA?

Oh man! I'm old enough to having coded CORBA in Java and in C++. I'm glad we aren't stuck in that era.
Very cool.

The beside my SOAP project last week, I only heard about SOAP and CORBA in university distributed systems class and that was ten years ago.

How is CORBA worse than SOAP? :D

SOAP is worse than CORBA in roughly the same way dying by falling from the Empire State building is worse than dying by being run over by a bus.
I had to deal with CORBA 6 months ago in the large scale architectures class at my university. I'm _very_ glad that class is over.
I admit to never having to tame that particular beast. And given the sub comment about it being on the same greatness level as SOAP, I think I may pass :D
