I think you misread my proposal. (maybe)
I'm asking people who are not interested in conforming to Web
architecture merely to change their end-point URIs from
http://www.foo.bar/myservice
to
http://www.foo.bar:987/myservice
We could make it even easier. We could define a SOAP URI that implied
the ":987" bit.
I really don't see how this is like trying to stop a train. Well,
actually I do: because SOAP is about firewall avoidance and even if we
could bring the developers around to our point of view the marketers
would never, ever, let anything slow the deployment of SOAP, including
firewalls.
