One of the interesting challenges with SOAP and the XML Protocol is how to
transport events and other asynchronous notifications from components that
reside on an HTTP origin server to a client.

There is a draft discussion paper that examines a range of techniques at:

  http://www.clipcode.com/peer/index.htm

and a summary diagram is at:

I would be interested in hearing (a) if there are any other techniques in
use, and (b) if anyone has had positive / negative experiences with any of
these techniques?
