Hello,

Tim Ewald from Microsoft wrote an illuminating article on why SOAP encoding
has no future in web services.

But what about RPC style?

Is there a future for RPC in web services? As web services are also
increasing used for intra-enterprise applications there is a clear need for
a standardized, cross-platform way of invoking remote procedure calls.
