due to pressing needs I need to know what the status of SOAP, XML-RPC and WebServices support in Zope2 are.
Zope has complete, extensive support for XML-RPC. It's really quite amazing. I wrote an XML-RPC proxy some years ago that lets you proxy requests from a Zope server to another XML-RPC server (it's on zope.org).
As far as I know, SOAP is not really supported by Zope directly. I suspect it could be added pretty painlessly, since there are some really nice SOAP implementations in python, but I've not really looked into it further since XML-RPC works between Java and Zope, and that has been my only non-python need so far :)
Hi, The following might be interesting? http://www.zope.org/Members/guylux/Zope-soap I haven't tested it because I don't really have any soap clients yet, but I have checked the code to see how much that needs to be patch to get Soap running. It doesn't seems to be that much? (The Soap libraries I have looked at hasn't been quite strait forward). This product might be sufficient to your needs? Please let me know if you evaluate this product more thoroughly :-) Of course it would be nice with WSDL and UDDI support as well, but I guess they need to be integrated in to the AppServer parts of Zope to really be useful?
