Andy Milligan, responsible for integrating the 'old' and unmanaged COM+ world with Indigo, states that that a developer will be able to automatically expose a deployed COM+ service as an Indigo service, od course without having the need to change existing DCOM-based clients. The bridging goo between the Indigo message and the COM+ call (in both directions, for server and client code) will be handled inside the infrastructure and not in your code.
OK, I not quite sure about the 'vision' of connecting my Excel spreadsheet with VBA scripts and DCOM calls to my Indigo services - but at least it will be possible ;)
