	Should work fine with ORBit2. Note this can also
go into your ~/.orbitrc. See the FAQ on orbit-resource.sf.net.

	Also note that "orbit-local-orb" isn't required
with ORBit2. The spec says that passing an empty string,
"", should give you the default ORB and ORBit2 now does
that.

Good Luck,
Mark.
