Slightly offtopic - ORBit and CORBA and IBM's MQ Series

["FALLON,DAVID JOSEPH" <dfallon ucla edu>]

This is a bit offtopic, but gnome (should :) has it's share of CORBA
experts - I was doing some research into middleware and messaging
solutions for my company, and was looking at IBM's MQ Series software
packages, trying to figure out what they do. From what I could get,
they're basically the same idea as CORBA - and I was curious if I'm going
in the right direction there, or if I'm completely off. While we're going
in that direction, is CORBA really a messaging solution, or just a way to
do remote code calling? (or is there something else I'm missing?)

Thanks!
