So, I think what I am asking and what you all are answering are two different questions. This is fine by me... So what I am reading is that there IS a v1.7 and it is mostly bug fixes, does not add any new RESTful features. Ok, cool, so this makes me think that 1.7 has been officially released, is that correct? If so, I would love to have it. Heck, even if it isn't officially release but an improvement over what I have been using for 5 years, I will take it. Where do I go and get it?
P.S. I was asking: how do I implement modify the service.xml to get a RESTful binding that uses all my SOAP code. I infer that it cannot be done, which is good to know.
