What you are referring to are called extensibility elements. To the best of my 
knowledge, the XML-RPC community has not defined any extensibility elements for 
XML-RPC messaging. You are correct WRT where SOAP specific stuff shows up (though you 
missed service). One could define extensibilty elements to map messages and operations 
to COM, CORBA, DCE-RPC, or any other mechanism.

        Ignore if I'm off topic (which I am a little bit :). In a WSDL file from the 
BWS book I see that the only SOAP specific parts come in at the <binding> and the 
<port> elements:
        <binding><soap:binding style="rpc" 
transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http";>...<soap:operation soapAction=""/>...
        
        <port...><soap:address...>
        
        From my understanding SOAP is just one XML protocol. One could have used for 
example the older XML-RPC. What are the changes need to be made in that case then? Can 
anyone point to a WSDL example that binds to an xml-rpc service. Am I missing 
something?
        
        TIA,
