Re: [soapbuilders] [Political]: Extending another 24 hours
Dave, I don't know if you want to count this as "signing up" or not. You
decide.
The goal Apache xml-soap project (and it's follow on xml-axis) continues to
be to develop an open and complete implementation of the SOAP 1.1 (and
W3C's follow-on standard XP).
A corollary of this statement would be we intend to support any subset
thereof, including the BDG subset you defined. A caution however - should
there ever surface a difference between a proported subset and the
published standard, we will comply with the standard.
Meanwhile, I do plan to meet face to face with a number of Apache
developers at ApacheCon next week, and my offer to host a face to face for
soapbuilders on the 19th and 20th in Raleigh still stands.
I marked this message as primarily political. Please, if you don't care to know about the politics of this work, don't read this message. ;-> In about two...

Hi, Sam! I have another concern. ApacheSOAP introduced SOAPStruct and bound it to 'http://xml.apache.org/xml-soap' as far as I remember. For interop services...
