PolicyList class and create_POA method seems easy to implement...
And we can report bugs in existing implementation,
but there is nothing we can do if there is no implementation at all...

Understanding "ORBit C API" into "orbitcpp API" mapping
is more difficult, becouse there is no documentation covering
some hidden issues (like where POA_ptr type is located?
I can't find its definition in sources or headers).
Besides, I currently doesn't have much time.

I'm currently forced to use MICO, becouse I just need working
CORBA-compliant implementation.
ORBit is much smaller and compiles much faster, sad I can't use it.
