[REBOL] Re: Google + SOAP

From: greggirwin:mindspring at: 28-Apr-2002 10:41

Hi Michael, << So what's so complex about SOAP?? It's merely an envelope of XML written in XML. Am I missing something here? >> Speaking from a position of relative ignorance, to me, XML itself is unwieldy and not good for human consumption. SOAP just adds another layer on top of it, which is no more human friendly than the original, indeed, it *is* the original as you point out. REBOL's dialecting approach is, IMHO, about a zillion times better than XML and SOAP. Interoperability is the only reason to even worry about it. Just had to jump in. :) --Gregg
