AFAICS, we need to define ".Net <--> CORBA" mapping. Probably we need 
shared services like NameService, activation service, interface 
repository service. I do not know .Net framework well, first I  need a 
good document describing .Net services and how remote requests are 
marshalled.  Do you know any good .Net reference doc?

AFAICS, more or less design should look like CORBA-DCOM interoperability 
bridge.
