Good perl programmers are smart enough to not use SOAP and XML.
If it's too much of a mess for the Perfectly Eclectic Rubbish Lister..it really is a mess.
At $work, I let three bright programmers attack the same XML problems, some well established XML/Soap API's being used in the utility world, including MultiSpeak and XMLvend. All were allowed to "pick their weapon", PHP, Perl and even (as I remember it) Ruby/Rails.
Nobody was able to parse real world crappy XML from real systems with their tools without some pre-processing to fix things. I wasted/burned 3 or more man-months on that crap..
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
