Whats the difference and what is standard?

By my reading of the XML-RPC spec, XML-RPC is a specification owned by
Userland Software(A Dave Winer work it seems), just using a very basic
glance its a considerably simplier protocol than SOAP.
SOAP, on the other hand, is a w3c spec. A bit more complex but probably more
versitile(I am not really a SOAP guy, I just know bits and pieces).

Hello,

Thanks for your post. I believe the following is helpful for discussing
XML-RPC vs SOAP and offering a simple guide to choose the best protocol for
your XML Remote Procedure Call needs.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any problems or concerns.

So XMLRPC is a proprietry specification and using SOAP would be much more
desirable and easier due to library and language support.
