SOAP for Ruby does not even promise to support the full gambit of the "modern" SOAP standard. And SOAP for Ruby doesn't seem to be in the hearts-and-minds of Ruby developers. Now you may be thinking, "I'm promoting SOAP with these statements." But, oh contraries! If SOAP died tomorrow I'd be a really happy camper. REST is the future! Anyone with vision is doing REST! REST rules! Go Ruby! Go Rails! Give SOAP a REST and let's build a brighter future! Unfortunately, we have to live with the backward thinkers like Microsoft and Oracle. So if Ruby need great SOAP support then my recommendation is come together, join in, and contribute to a Ruby SOAP project. I wouldn't count of the core Ruby on Rails developers to do it for your though. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
