I would call it Database Server instead of SQL Server.  Partially
because it could be a nonSQL database server but mostly because most
windows folks think SQL Server mean MS SQL Server.

I would consider using RPC instead of RPI.  Most programmers will know
that RPC is Remote Procedure Call, I think Remote Procedure Interface
sounds better, but we might be better using something more familiar.

Class Repository and Code Interface and Native Procedures have me
slightly confused.  Does it mean that class repository is the basic
object defintion and thus similar to the database schema?  If so where
are the class methods stored?  Are the definitions for them in the class
repository and the actual code that makes them up in the native
procedures?

I didnt see anything marked (e) in the diagram.  Though I could have
easily overlooked it.
