I was thinking the same thi Yes, the list seems to benifit from grouping of similar protocols (see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2000Apr/0058.html). I meant to propse furthur grouping, but apparently failed. I just made a quick pass at this (see http://slow1.w3.org/2000/03/29-XML-protocol-matrix). Summary: generic: XML-RPC SOAP WDDX XMI jabber ebXML BizTalk BXXP LOTP app-specific: ICE IOPT WfXML eCo XMOP non-XML: TIP XDR HTTP-NG template I haven't read all of these specs so some of these may be in the wrong place. Pleast post corrections to the list. -- -eric (eric@w3.org)
