[racket] help using xml-rpc:1:2

(reposted to racket user list)

Hi Jay, hi all

to tell the truth, some time ago I was looking for a SOAP package in
plt/racket, but there's no one. So I started using/testing your
xmlrpc pkg (and the older one as well).
In my current project I am developing a WS-BPEL engine
in Racket Scheme ... this is why I needed soap client/server
libraries.
Right now I found some lisp opensource implementations of SOAP.
Therefore now my intention is to study them and at the same time
to look at your xmlrpc package source (I have no experience in
racket webservers, servlets and http-based communication).
The result should be (I hope) a new package implementing (at least) soap
clients routines in Racket.
If this work will take too much time, I could always use your xmlrpc
pkg on different machine with the same Racket distribution.

Thank you,
Cheers,

Maurizio.

PS: In my opinion, it would be fine in a future to have in Racket
a better support of  WS libraries  and tools
