The LSID protocol defines a protocol for resolving LSIDs some of which uses web services. If it were a bring problem, the WS definition of this API could be replaced with something else, such as REST. This is true with any API specification. In this case, the LSID API is not that complex, so the translation wouldn't be too hard. >>>>> "Alan" == Alan Ruttenberg <alanruttenberg@gmail.com> writes: Alan> I'm intrigued by this remark.
