We have to be careful not to exclude the use of the Web Method Specification Feature of SOAP 1.2; an HTTP GET is now a valid message that can be sent, received, and processed in a Web services context. I like the approach of documenting best practice. We could easily say that the reference architecture uses SOAP messages serialized with XML, *and* HTTP GET messages. I don't see any interop issue with doing that. MB -- Mark Baker, CTO, Idokorro Mobile (formerly Planetfred) Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA. distobj@acm.org http://www.markbaker.ca http://www.idokorro.com
