"Getting Started with Web Services with XFire"
Presented by Dan Diephouse

Web services have evolved into a complex mash of standards and confusing
acronyms. To build SOAP services one needs to understand the
fundamentals of XML, WSDL, XML Schema, SOAP, and more. Then one needs to
learn the toolkit they are going to use to interact with these
standards. It can sometimes be a daunting task even for professionals.
The open source Codehaus XFire project can help you get your web service
off the ground easily. This talk will lead you through building services
with XFire. It will also help you address design decisions you will have
to make in the process like how to secure your web service, how to
choose the right XML/object binding, and how to plan ahead for service
versioning.

See you there!
