I hate to start a food fight, but I have to admit that I have a _very_ hard time trying to figure out why anyone would want to preserve, extend, or encourage MIME multipart transfers for XML. Be it MIME or something else, that isn't the issue. [MIME is just a likely candidate 'cos it's proved useful (in both e-mail and HTTP) and is well known.] That said --- I would like to see "an XML protocol" (I am not trying to start a MIME fan club. ;-) The issue is simply that XML itself [and hence SOAP] is sadly lacking in shipping XML inside. regards Adam
