| | webservices.xml.com: Emerging Technology Briefs: WSDL (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) |
 | | WSDL is the de facto description mechanism in the current Web Services SOAP/WSDL/UDDI trinity (or quaternity if you assume HTTP as the default transport mechanism). |
 | | While WSDL is not endorsed by the W3C as a standard, just about every player in the Web Services space has embraced WSDL and incorporated it into their frameworks and products. |
 | | WSDL 1.1, the version of WSDL in widespread use today, was published as a W3C Note in March of 2001 and may be taken, for all intents and purposes, to represent current thinking in Web Services description by the W3C's Web Services Activity. |
