Hi Folks,

        I thought you might find the following posting from Michi
Henning interesting.  This is definitely something we hope to get
involved with at some point!

        Take care,

>> 
>> It was announced today in London, England that the European Commission
>> (EC) has entered into an agreement with six organisations to support the
>> CORVAL2 project. Enhanced Techniques for CORBA Validation (CORVAL2) is a
>> project whose objective is to develop new mechanisms for testing CORBA

>> The specific objectives of CORVAL2 are to specify and develop new test
>> development tools and test suites for CORBA 2.3, and subsequently CORBA
>> 3.0.  The test suites will be used to verify the correctness of ORB
>> implementations by vendors and other OMG members; to enhance The Open
>> Group Brand programmes in support of CORBA technology; and to promote
>> the user acceptance of CORBA technology.
>> 
>> The tools and tests will be developed by GMD FOKUS in Berlin, Germany
>> and will build on The Open Group tests and tools created for validating
>> CORBA 2.1 in the original EC-supported CORVAL project.  The new
>> functionality being specified in CORBA 2.3 and CORBA 3.0, for which the
>> project will create tests, includes The Portable Object Adapter, Value
>> Type Semantics, Enhancements to Interoperability Protocols, Asynchronous
>> Messaging, Persistent State Service Support and CORBA Components.
>> 
>> The enhanced test execution tools will be the basis for the Open Brand
>> for CORBA Programme.  The CORBA test suites will be used in the
>> certification of products to be included in the Brand Programme.
>> 
>> OMG is supporting the implementation of the project, with the goals of
>> improving interoperability, conformance of implementations, mechanisms
>> to resolve specification issues, and the general promotion of the
>> acceptance of CORBA Technology.  CORVAL2's project management is
>> provided by The Open Group, which is also responsible for the Open Brand
