As far as I'm concerned Jarapac is in a holding pattern at the moment (but
Eric just popped his head up recently so maybe he has something different
to say about that). I have plans for the wire encoding/decoding problems
in the form of an IDL compiler that generates very concise NDR routines.
Unfortunately I'm not in the habit of sharing code until I think it's in a
form that represents the proper direction I want to go with it.

I hope you're still around when I get around to that. Once we have
IDL->Java stubs working there will be a lot of work to do. It should be a
lot of fun though. I'm sure we'll attract a couple of hotshots when we get
it working well. I'm looking forward to it.
