Sanjia Weerawarana asks: >> Isn't this SOAP encoding in disguise? I don't think so. SOAP encoding is visible in the SOAP envelope and to applications: it represents a completely different data model as compared to unencoded SOAP. MTOM is an optimization, and except for the fact that the application can provide hints, MTOM is invisible to the application. MTOM optimizations are not necessarily preserved from hop-to-hop, and so on. I can see the parallel you're drawing, but I think that the differences outnumber the similarities.
