  But doesn't Maypole 2.0 answer the setup issues?

    I believe so, and from what I hear it seems like an excellent piece of kit - however I feel that html, although a good medium, does not address the needs of the application(s) that I am looking to develop, hence the desire to look elsewhere.

      Ahh! Yes, HTML/HTTP as the universal protocol leaves quite a bit to be desired (aside from Firewall pentetrability).

      If you come up with something as elegant as Maypole but based around WSDL [developer.com] and the other WS* standards, that would be way cool. (Not that the standard SOAP over HTTP is much of an improvement protocol-wise, but it decouples at least.)

      Would a hypothetical Maypole::SoapLite extension, probably using WSDL::Generator [cpan.org] and/or SOAP::WSDL [cpan.org] do anything for you?

      FYI, although I haven't used it mysel

        A "Maypole::SoapLite" module would be most usefull ( although I imagine the dependencies would cover a large part of CPAN ) - Almost a Holy Grail as far as this project is concerned. In terms of my own development, I haven't yet decided whether its best to base this on Maypole, or base it on the theories that Maypole is based upon, I think a fair bit of R&D will be required - especially in WSDL and XML schema.
        
        Your comment about the decoupling effect provided by SOAP is one of the reasons I am consideri
