Somebody on comp.lang.python sent me this excerpt from the fnorb list:

The Python ORBit binding is under heavy development.  The IDL compiler
is almost finished for very simple interfaces (basic function
call/return of simple types, no structs, no unions, no out/inout
arguments).  I plan to have something usable within a week or two.  

I'll make an announcement on the Fnorb and ORBit lists when it gets to
that state.  If you can provide a minimal list of CORBA features you
require for your application, that will help me to prioritize
development.

The date is early May, and I've never heard anything about this guy's
bindings, so I imagine the project stalled. Regradless, I'm going to email
him and see what he's up to...
