How good is CORBA?

[Sai Krishna M]

Hi everybody,

i have been developing web based applications using python+cheetah.

The numbers are increasing. The applications have many common parts of
code. Though these applications are separate from each other they are
run in the same server.

I heard about CORBA... but also heard that it has some flaws...like
the programming being very complicated.
Also heard that CORBA is no more used these days...

Can someone suggest me a better option or is corba fine?

Thanks,
Sai
