Ok Nik.  I have removed the CSRF middleware and get a brand new error.

XMLSyntaxError at /hello/
error parsing attribute name, line 1, column 6Request Method: POST
Request URL: http://piadm42.troweprice.com:5555/hello/
Django Version: 1.3.1
Exception Type: XMLSyntaxError
Exception Value: error parsing attribute name, line 1, column 6
Exception Location: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
soaplib-2.0.0_beta1-py2.6.egg/soaplib/core/_base.py in
_parse_xml_string, line 248
Python Executable: /usr/bin/python
Python Version: 2.6.6

The POST in fiddler is something like this ->  http://mysite.com:5555/hello/
 and the request body contains -> <name=fred&times=2>
