Too true... this is what I've been ranting about. ;^) > Since there is no standard client/server XML protocol, our product > (WebORB)implements something we came up - WOLF (Web Object Literal > Format).

Are you planning on it? It looks interesting but, to be blunt, it looks a whole heck of a lot like WDDX (although actually much more verbose - even the simple example on the page you reference returns a 12kb packet). It's definitely simpler than SOAP (which can only be good). But if it stays a proprietary solution I'm not sure how it will help the situation overall. Don't get me wrong - it's all very cool stuff and, I'm sure, insanely useful, but it doesn't seem as if you're addressing the problem you starting talking about (lack of a broad standard).
