I concur. My comments were mainly directed at ASP.Net/WCF development.

When crossing platforms hand coding can be vital.

We've had issues with our Java based workflow being called from .Net clients. We've gotten around the issues, but hasn't always been pretty.

Just fun to have a little laugh at Todd's expense. Couldn't resist :-)

You don't need to know a lot about WSDL's until you start developing more complex data streams that talk to many different platforms and languages. In the end, if you are offering public web services, you will inevitably become familiarized with WSDL/XSD/XML because not everyone does it like Microsoft. And then once you become familiar with WSDL/XSD/XML and have to "debug" it for your customers, you will inevitably say to yourself: why not simplify this approach to use HTTP POST + simple XML (like I said earlier in this post).

Just my experience of the roughly 10yrs I have been doing web services (with the last 6 years doing it almost fulltime).
