Hi,
XMLRPC may not be enough. I have tried some of the request using the XMLRPC
and it works but i am not sure if its enough for managing all the requests.
I am trying to connect to a magento site. and their recommended approach is
unfortunately soap. SoapOpera updating is a possibility it seems, am i
right? Also any paid paid solution is not practical for us at the momment.

Also i hope the SoapOpera is latest at squeakSource and that it was last
updated in 2010.

thanks for the replies

Thushar
