OCapN/CapTP might just be adding async and native cryptography to Corba (again in spirit, not in the sense of actual technical heritage or *conscious* reinventing).

"This protocol allows for networked programming which, with the appropriate tooling, has the convenience of programming against "networked objects" which are little different from any other asynchronous programming in the host language."
Framing network communication as "networked objects" just reeks like the basic approach of Corba: everything on the network is an object (in the OOP sense). Communication is "messaging an object" (again OOP sense, method invocation).

Not even saying that. Just feels parallel. Like reinventing the wheel (even if not consciously) just hopefully better (but back then the wheel didn't work out so well, was too heavyweight probably which is why SOAP and then REST came to be).

@dthompson No I didn't hear of that. I didn't mean it is a technical successor of Corba but possibly in spirit?

@dthompson The web page says so. "OCapN's CapTP can be run over different "netlayer" implementations ranging from Tor Onion Services to IBC to I2P to libp2p to perhaps carrier pigeons"
I'm not sure how much this is a remake of things like Corba then...
