Ken MacLeod has started implementing SOAP in Perl and
in
Python. An online demonstration server for the Perl
implementation is available.
MacLeod bills both implementations as "minimal"
currently, but some useful functionality is available. The
Perl version, SOAP-RPC, has a demo server at
http://Casbah.org:8000/ and also a command line
program for exercising SOAP methods.
The Python implementation supports the SOAP "Section 8"
serialization format, aping Python's "pickle" API. It is
available by anonymous CVS from:
