Or those interested in SOAP could look at Industry Standard (and fully
HP/VMS supported) Axis2. If you're in Florida you may be interested in
this: - http://www.openvms.org/stories.php?story=10/01/08/7761916

Or the HP/VMS web-page at: -
http://h71000.www7.hp.com/openvms/products/ips/axis2/index.html

Of course the reasons why we have yet to see a full implementation of
Axis2/C for VMS are for the reader's speculation. My best guess is because
you'd be cutting the lunch of HP employees, that are erstwhile surplus to
requirements, they are busy scurrying from corridor to corridor white-anting
and diverting any attempts to bring this Apache-Inspired and
industry-standard middleware into the fold. Just pay ye olde DEC mafia-tax
and cut 'em a piece of the action; there just no beating that's this well
entrenched :-(

Looks pretty good over here: - http://ws.apache.org/axis2/c/
