Ugh... That's the core of my arguement against the SOAP/WS-* specs...
they took what are generally good ideas - being able to exchange data
in a relatively language agnostic way - implemented a version and then
handed it off to the enterprise geeks and salesmen.

That said, there are a number of "best practices" that enable
portability across systems, multi-language support, readability,
multi-db support, and generally improve maintenance.  In this case,
the "Whose?" would be "generally accepted"... and generally, I'm one
of them... for v1.1.  ;)
