Current CORBA dev status

I am trying to find out the current status of CORBA integration with PHP. I have searched through the archives, and it looks like it has been some time since the topic has been brought up. Is there anyone currently working on this? I am was thinking about putting some time behind the 'ol keyboard in the near future, but didn't want to repeat any work already being done, and would just as well help whatever effort was being put to it.
