Exposing ActiveGrid application components as web services isn't there 
yet. When it is, users will be able to provide a file specification for 
the generated WSDL. The WSDL will also be available via a URL from the 
running application (e.g. as a "?WSDL" query parameter).

This will be in ActiveGrid 1.0. Developers will point at an external 
service's WSDL, creating a "service reference". Then create application 
actions that invoke web service operations. We're hoping to support 
consumption of both SOAP and REST services in 1.0.

Most likely. Although hopefully this forum can help until then.
