We need an updated edition

This is a classic authored by one of the real "movers and shakers" of the OMG, but as others said is dated. I wish he'd update this work to cover the POA as well as other topics. Henning Vinosky does this and has been worth its weight in gold.

A little dated, but still very good

A fairly hype-free text on how to get CORBA up and running. Good for a starter text, but I still feel the need for some good reference information afterwords. Don't throw out your ORB documentation yet...Also, the text is circa 1996. Talks about a lot of stuff 'in progress.' I'd like to see a more recent version with updates to what the book speaks about.

good overview, examples - weak index, design options info

good architectural review, and great examples for coding your first client and server. Would have liked more info about: 1)designs for a large distributed client base 2) backup server registration/lookup ideas 3) actual executables, services, and repositories needed at distributed sites to handle client base
