Please keep it simple!

I know nothing of DCOP, beside it is based on ICE and that it sounds like KDE 
dependece. I would not vote for a KDE or Qt dependent solution.

I have a little experience with CORBA, (i.e. TAO) on our VxWorks 
realtime-cluster. If ORBit is really easier (and faster) I would maybe give 
it a try.

I also have some experience with MPI but only from a user's perspective, but 
there is more to it. It's maybe not the right thing.

Pipes via NFS can be nasty but as a first step it is not better or worse than 
the socket we use now, is it?

Cheers,
Rolf
