Do a little research on Polyorb. Start eith this link:

                               http://polyorb.objectweb.org/

Plus, look at the source code.  Too many references to Java to be a simple 
slip or a single routine that was converted. It suggest that the complete code 
was a direct re-write of a JAVA package or a set of routines.  And since 
Polyorb has been around since 1998, the maintainers have had time to edit 
all comments and remove the references but they did not.

One Java reference is one too many.  All comments should be about Ada or 
the origin of the code.  The exception is the "JAVA RMI" sub-system which 
comes directly from JAVA.

Plus, information (emails) from Adacore themselves.
