Subject: _this() and IMPLICIT_ACTIVATION need clarification


Section 3.3.1, in the second bullet, states that "Values of type
Servant
support a language-specific programming interface that can be used by
the ORB to obtain a default POA for that servant. This interface is
used
only to support implicit activation. A language mapping may provide a
default implementation of this interface that returns the root POA of
a
default ORB."  For C++, it appears that the Servant::_default_POA()
operation is intended to provide this feature.
