Henrik, the difference is that Gudge adds the unnecessary notion of graph root into the data model and dismisses the root attribute for the wrong reasons while not taking into account the SOAP 1.1 rules that might survive and cause problems. In terms of text changes the difference is small, in terms of the rationale it's bigger.
