Camrade qrilka has shown interest in Orcas. Right now we are not quite sure as to what is the best approach to SOAP in Erlang.

Since RSDN's webservice is quite small, one approach would be to implement all calls and parse all responses by hand. But that's boring, isn't it? :)

Today I've braced myself and went to war with erlsoap, which has been stagnating for the past two years. Well, you can check out the code yourself. The file is test_soap.erl, and you run it by

test_soap:run().

qrilka suggested that we use Smerl. This still leaves quite a lot to do by hand. Anyway, tomorrow, time permitting, we'll take a look into the matter.
