There's a thread today on the SOAP 1.2 group's public mailing list that is relevant to a

the (in)appropriateness of synchronous RPC protocols over the Web, and probably
a few more: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xml-dist-app/2002Jan/0090.html

Subject: Article: Fat protocols slow Web services
Any comment on this article?

Some particularly interesting IMO replies include:
