Hear ye! Hear ye!

I've just started stressing my brain on the CORBA 2 docs... It turns out
that CORBA will be completely compatible with the existing system.

postmaster will register a "method server" with the ORB (which is a separate
process in mico, at least). A "method server" is one which requires a
separate process for every method invocation. Which is basically what we do
now with our one-backend-per-connection system. At least until the backend
is thread-safe, we're stuck with it. When the backend is thread-safe, we can
switch to "unshared server" where we have one per database. :)

P.S. When will that corba-specific list be set up? I'm sure that well over
half of the list didn't care one bit about what I just said.
