[Zope] SOAP support in Zope

[Robert Rottermann]

I do not know what SOAP is, never really looked into it.
However we work with a customer where we suport a Zope/Plone intranet 
running on a linux server that is burried deep in a Windows environment.

What I do there is calling all that *.net stuff (which is not SOAP I 
know) trough a thin layer that uses python's URL-lib.
