bgneal@4: I came across an interesting question on Stackoverflow_, which was essentially
bgneal@4: `How to install omniORBpy in a virtualenv`_? I've had a lot of experience with
bgneal@4: omniORB_, a high quality, open-source CORBA ORB, at work. omniORB is a C++ ORB,
bgneal@4: but it also includes omniORBpy, a thin Python_ wrapper around the C++ core.
bgneal@4: Despite using omniORBpy extensively, I had never used it in a virtualenv_.
bgneal@4: 
bgneal@4: So I got curious, and gave it a shot. You can read `my answer`_, which the
bgneal@4: questioner accepted. I'd love to hear of any better ways of doing it. I worked
bgneal@4: it out for Ubuntu, but a Windows solution would be nice to see also.
