Prolly chumped before but: WWW2005 panel -- Web Services Considered Harmful
posted by bijan at 2005-06-13 17:10

bijan: Perhaps could be retitled, "Panels considered unhelpful and often uninteresting"
bijan: The main problem I had with it was that there was no plausible web services champion on the panel.
bijan: I think there were some good anti points raised -- certainly well worth considering -- but it didn't help frame the debate.
bijan: And, to be sure, I'm not a huge fan of "tit for tat" balance. In this case, however, it would have helped, I think.
carine: I hope that someone made the point that REST and SOAP are orthogonal...
bijan: IIRC (and it's been a few weeks) there was a fair bit of critique of SOAP per se, e.g., exactly what is the advantage of the wrapper (as opposed to useing HTTP headers, for example)
