Currently, Taverna's Soaplab scavenger does not use the derived services; 
only the non-derived services in Soaplab. (Endpoints without ".derived")

Taverna also does not use WSDL for Soaplab. Taverna uses the 
"AnalysisFactory" service, to get a list of Soaplab services.

Then, it uses the getInputSpec() and getResultSpec() methods on a 
particular service (non-derived), to retrieve further information about 
that service.
(compare with: 
http://taverna.cvs.sourceforge.net/taverna/taverna1.0/src/org/embl/ebi/escience/scuflworkers/soaplab/)


You are right, in the derived services, getInputSpec() and getResultSpec() 
are not necessary, because this information is already in the WSDL.


Martin, is it correct that also Soaplab-2 will still have both flavours of 
services? Derived and Non-derived?
(Btw., I opt for some other naming of the flavours, e.g. untyped/typed, 
simple/verbose, etc.)


Kind regards,
