That is not what we discussed.

Almost ever middlewares (and also many non-middlewares) provide such OS
portable wrapper. The question is NOT whether a middleware vendor
should provide this solution, but whether the "standard" of this OS
portable layer should be CORBA (other another) middleware specific, or
independent. I don't see why this OS portable layer should be and could
be CORBA specific. If it is CORBA independent, it should not be
specified by a OMG. It should go to a standard body who has been
engaging in the standardization of OS API or programming environment,
such as Opengroup, ISO, IEEE, and ANSI, etc.. (see another of my
followup)

If we really want this layer to be CORBA specific, and fit in the CORBA
architecture, it should be defined using IDL. However, there are more
problems I would expect.....
