Correction to story on Sun and SOAP

SOAP never used a "proprietary Microsoft Technology linked to the company's
BizTalk Server software."  SOAP is a wire protocol, and it does not depend
on any particular implementation technology.  The only technologies it
depends on are HTTP, XML 1.0 and XML Namespaces, all non-proprietary
standards.  This is true of SOAP 1.1 and was equally true of SOAP 1.0.
