If we were to create a fork of the nuSOAP project, nuSphere would enforce their claim to the nuSOAP name and therefore we would be naming our fork something like btSOAP to get around that issue.

AFAIK, Soap is working without need to patch nusoap... unless it depends
on a Debian patched version of nusoap in the test environment where I

Nusoap it self is only really helpful with PHP5 for generation of the
WSDL descriptors I think.

Just my 2 cents,
