3 Presentation Services using SOAP

The Presentation services, such as DAP2's Info response, will be implemented using SOAP RPC. These higher level services provide the kind of functionality that will allow our users to use UDDI as a discovery mechanism, and should be kept in the SOAP RPC domain.

Presentations Services to be described: Info, Version, HTML (a form interface).

Note that the development of `Server4' will introduce software which uses THREDDS to encode directories and catalogs in XML. I assume that a SOAP RPC interface will be developed for these and so they will fall into the Presentation Services.

The Presentation Services are responses which the OPeNDAP servers will support that are not, strictly speaking, DAP responses.
