Hi Philippe,

	I havn't read your article due to lack of time, but thanks for
your positive response and interaction.

	Quite true - although we do share a huge amount of common ground I
think.

	:-) which is where we beg to differ, but there is a case to be
answered certainly, and that's why Bonobo is more than just some CORBA
interfaces.

	I would reccommend reading libbonobo, libbonoboui, ORBit2, linc if
I were you - we've just released alphas of these for Gnome 2.0, they clean
up a load of nasty mess around the place and will be easier to read.

	I look forward to your comments, more eyes on the code are always
welcome,

	Regards,

		Michael.
