Thanks. I will look into the SPI package. The only thing is that it would be
nice if the SOAP api could be used with any JSR-170 compliant servers on the
backend.

Hi Sten,

I'd recommend to create a SOAP API based on the Jackrabbit SPI effort
because it
is much easier to implement. In contrast to the JCR API the Jackrabbit SPI
is
less object oriented (e.g. there are no methods to navigate between items,
etc.)
and better suited for protocols.

See:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.jackrabbit.devel/11221/
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.jackrabbit.user/2463/

If you are interested in building a SOAP API based on the Jackrabbit SPI
interfaces you may want to have a look at the SPI-RMI implementation. It
simply
remotes the SPI interfaces using RMI. Using SOAP instead should be
straight forward.
