I can imagine an experimental new C++ binding to be a worthy summer 
project. I have been using omniORB (http://omniorb.sourceforge.net/) 
heavily in the past, and I believe it to be easy enough to apply 
changes, in particular to its IDL compiler backend (which is written in 
Python), to generate code for such an alternative language binding.

In addition, some of the obvious changes are small and could be applied 
incrementally.

So, technically I don't see any reason not to try it, if someone's up to 
that task.

FWIW,
