There are also ILU, OmniORB, Arache, and MICO. All of these support
C++, ILU also supports multiple languages, including Java. Arachne is
being extended with new language bindings, as well.

RMI is an extra later on top of CORBA. While this wasn't initial
intention of its writers, it turned out to be politically, as well as
technically the right thing to do.
Perhaps somebody will tackle writing true Java compiler, using gcc
backend (I wouldn't be surprised if egcs team thinks of this). In that
case, Linux tends to get highest level of support, mostly because
that's what large percentage of free software developers has
available.
In that case, I /might/ consider starting to do projects in Java. :)
