well, i think it's a pretty good idea to let the gui run on the client
as ab java-appl, connect to the server via rmi (saves money rather then
to buy an orb-license). i can't see where it would make any sense to
load the guy-classes from the server, but maybe you can explain to us
why you want to do so?
