You're right, mostly. 8-) Towards the end of the discussion though, I found myself wondering if the current types of SOAP faults were sufficient. HTTP redirection would be a concept that would be difficult to hide, don't you think? What if a SOAP message is sent over HTTP, and the resource has temporarily moved? RFC 2616 sec 10.3.3 (response status 302) says that for a POST, that the user agent MUST NOT do an automatic redirect, so that suggests to me that the client should know what's going on. MB
