Subject: Re: Comparison of ICAP and SOAP
Web Services intermediaries will certainly exist and use SOAP; whether
they are exactly like the current OPES model is still unclear. Indeed
the security/integrity problems have to be solved, and this is more
fundamental than debating the ICAP hammer and the SOAP screwdriver.

so by adding components that can alter data in transit, you're going
to increase the level of integrity? right.
