I'd definitely be interested by portable, standard, simple-to-use C++-based
remoting of objects.

Just a couple of quick questions after scanning the article:

- Does/could the library support custom marshaling on a per-object and/or
interface basis - I'd be specifically interested in MBV (Marshal By Value)?
- Did you implement portable, binary serialization?
