“XML is perhaps the strongest standard of the decade. XML vocabularies are the building stones that
organizations will use to construct a universe of services. XML_RPC is a standard that will have to be
studied to construct the web of services because it is useful to put services available on the web and
because it is a solid standard that might easily get adopted. The importance of a standard to provide
services is enormous for b2b services, companies sharing a common standard can grow very fast by
using services provided by other companies and so on. I can’t imagine a true web of services based on
different propietary formats. They must find a standard to adopt.”
