I'm doing something along the lines for my dissertation.  Part of the
proof-of-concept automatically converts information in Ada Remote_Types 
and RCI packages into corresponding IDL-like and Java RMI representations.  
I use ASIS to extract the info from the Ada packages.  ASIS Rocks!

However:
  1. I use my own IDL... it's very similar to Corba.  At one time, it 
     was pure Corba IDL.  At some time in the future, I'd like to 
     re-introduce pure Corba IDL to it but I don't have time right now.
  2. It isn't in any type of releasable form and won't be for at 
     least several more months.

So, I'm of no use other than to say that I feel your pain.
