+<h2>An Experimental CORBA binding for ML</h2>
+<p>
+The future version of Proof General may use CORBA as a communication
+mechanism between different components.  CORBA is also used by the
+Unix/Linux desktops KDE and GNOME, which the free implementations MICO
+and ORBIT.  We would like to be able to use ML to write applications
+and utilities in, to interface with other CORBA components on the
+desktop and network.  For this a CORBA binding for ML is needed.  This
+project involves the design and implementation of such a binding,
+using one of the open-source ML compilers such as Moscow ML, Poly/ML
+or OCaml (there may already be a project underway for the last of
+these).  
+</p>
+<p>
+A CORBA binding for Haskell would also be an interesting project.
+</p>
+</p>
+<p>
+<b>Skills:</b>
+Good ML programming skills and understanding of abstraction
+mechanisms, basic understanding of CORBA.
