Hey now...

This KLUG list is NOT the only place that
Bryan J. Smith offers his opinions with a
concise perspective!!!

I was reading the Opinion page of e-Week,
page 34 of July 30 (V18/#29), and a name
seemed to catch my eye...  Bryan J. Smith!
Probabilities of two???  Nah...   The
following was published!
------------------------------------------------

OPINION
Can XML escape M$'s "SOP?"  History says NO!
============================================
Unfortunately, betas or even first releases
of Microsoft [products] rarely match later
release versions in interoperability.

SOAP is one standard that has already fallen
victim to Microsoft, even though M$ helped
write the standard.    -  Bryan J. Smith 


GO BRYAN!!!  KEEP TELLING IT, LIKE IT IS!!!



L8r  mag00  <grin>


PS - SOAP = Simple Object Access Protocol
NOT Symbolic Optimal Assembly Program in
this instance!   ;)
