I have some notes toward CORBA'fying Zope (or Zopifying CORBA) at:

  http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/CosNaming/ZopeAsCORBAServer

The general idea is that Zope would expose _all_ of its objects as
CORBA::Objects, through a fairly generic interface (like what the ZopeStudio and
XML-RPC clients need).  I think we need to make CORBA as non-invasive as
possible, at least at first;  we might allow specific Products to expose
additional CORBA interfaces, however.
