Too far away. I need a multithreaded ORB soon, and ORBit2 should solve all
my problems. For now, I have to make do with ORBit-mt. It's not an optimal
solution in terms of integrating other software, but it works.

Elliot Lee has made at least one test release of ORBit2 (around a month ago=
).
The announcement went to the ORBit mailing list, and I don't think anything
more has been announced since:

Short quote:

"It is intended to fix whatever big things are broken in ORBit stable tree,
break whatever already works, and add just a few new features."

He has also heavily emphasized the _test_ nature of the _test_ release. :)
