Have to disagree here.
First, speaking a language that someone else understands - customer,
partners, users, clients, whatever - is not a weakness. I may think
that Hindi is a better language than Spanish. But if I'm going to
Mexico, learning their language is the right thing.
When I build an app, I want my customers and users to be able to
connect to it how they like - not give them a sermon in architecture.
Aside from which, SOAP is well proven software supported on nearly
every platform you can think of. ActiveResource at this point is
labware. Promising labware, perhaps, but certainly nothing I can
expect all of my customers to use.
