[Soaplite-devel] Document-style encoding for SOAP::Lite - offer of support

[Jason S. <jas...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I'm new to this list. My name is Jason Stewart and I am a maintainer
of a number of Perl modules on CPAN including XML::Xerces (I am JASONS
on CPAN), as well as a long time maintainer of SF projects (e.g.
mged.sf.net). I am writing to offer my assistance to the SOAP::Lite
project.

I've been offered a contract to add support to SOAP::Lite for
Document-style syntax. Because my client is paying for this, it will
be my primary focus, but I really want to do this in a fashion which
best supports the *entire* SOAP::Lite community, and not just my
client.

I would really enjoy assisting the new maintainers to help transition
the codebase to SVN, or in splitting the monolithic .pm file, or other
tasks. My primary concern for the next month will be SOAP::Lite - I
will be able to dedicate a *lot* of time.

I've been a Perl programmer since 1991, and a C/C++ programmer since
1995. Because of my background with Xerces, I have a lot of experience
with XML, but my experience with SOAP and web services is limited, and
old. I will need to catch up with the times.

Please let me know how I can best help. Looking forward to working
with you all!

Cheers, jas.
