A project that would align more closely with the Boost mission would be a redo of the CORBA binding (it's awful) for C++ using TR1 and other modern C++.
Yes! The CORBA C++ binding is truly awful in many ways. Supporting a modern binding using standard C++, TR1, and Boost facilities would go a long way towards simplifying and "robustifying" CORBA use in C++ apps. I'm sure other orgs or people have tried this in the past (probably not with Boost or TR1, though), so I would assume there's some case studies available (specially if the project was unsuccessful - that would give a good idea of the scope and challenges involved).
