Furthermore it's a skill-set that anyone engaged in integration projects is likely to need and have. Using lower-level techniques such as HTTP POST with an authentication header is <B>not</B> simple in a cross-platform/cross-language project, whereas I've mixed and matched Java, C# and PHP applications via SOAP with remarkable ease.<BR/><BR/>I look forward to the day when EKP exposes its APIs via SOAP.
