Hi!

I've found the following page: http://jefsey.com/ocph.htm
So it seems that SOAP previously dropped out as a callout-protocol
candidate, because of the following reasons I have collected from the
mailinglist: complexity, bandwidth, delay, size of the transported
information, no "standard" way to transmit opaque data, etc.

Thank you both for your help.
