It's not harsh at all.

It sounds like SOAP isn't nearly as cast in stone as XMLRPC is, though,
which sounds funny, because SOAP is a w3c standard, while I don't think
XMLRPC is.  The reason I say this is that Cookie-based sessions in SOAP
seem to be being adopted, even though they're not in the w3c document.

I'm not doing anything .net, but I found that discussion of cookie-based
sessions in a Microsoft .net discussion of SOAP.

However, I can tell when I'm trying to swim up-stream, so after sleeping
on it, I'll just add an SID as an argument to every XMLRPC method I
define.
