Looking at the ICE from the technical implementation is still the last century, the remote object calls ideas. And now fashionable .NET J2EE is not on a technical level. As for the vision of CORBA, it is not so pessimistic. ICE these "advantages" is not enough to shake Corba's big tree. Even if ICE is successful, it seems to bring us also a new remote call means, just like J2EE and .NET technology, the original DCOM, RPC, CORBA technology still green trees, elders Sell. After all, ICE did not bring us a new design idea. The road to ICE wants to go is still very long. At present, I still treat him with a concern attitude. Although ICE is still immature but I still have some beautiful expectations. But if ICE is a comparison target as CORBA, then his pace may not be too big. I hope that Marc Laukien's vision is far from the open source platform like J2EE or .NET technology to open source communities.
