Well, I tried it this last week or so (if it is the patch Andy
referenced this last week), and was unable to get it to work, though in
fairness, it was applied to Zope 2.4.0 :)

I have a very strong need for SOAP support in Zope, as I my company is
developing a *very* significant and ambitious service infrstructure, and
Zope would make it soooo much easier, especially since we intend to put
out Zope Products that connct to it, and use it.

Any chance you could port the patch to 2.4.0, at least for Prototyping
use? :)
