I apologize for the lateness of these comments; we hope that they'll still be useful. The MMI WG is interested in SOAP especially as it applies to mobile devices for a variety of reasons. For instance, it is applicable to coordinating multimodal interaction involving a visual interface in a cell phone and a speech interface supported in the network. SOAP would be used to convey events between the visual and voice interfaces. SOAP would also allow scripts running in mobile devices to access network services as an alternative to reloading web pages etc. Our main comment is that we are concerned that SOAP 1.2 may be too heavyweight for resource-constrained devices such as cell phones. We would like to request that the XML Protocol working group address the needs of resource constrained devices like cellphones, and consider developing a mobile profile with involvement of mobile companies.
