This feature includes resolutions from OMG that affect on-the wire
interoperability for the J2EE Application Servers. Since CORBA 2.3.1, several
interoperability issues have been submitted and resolved thru OMG. Since
RMI/IIOP interoperability is one of the main goals of J2EE, Sun's ORB needs to
incorporate resolutions/updates of any interop issues since CORBA 2.3.1.
