Starting to sound a little SOAPy here already:
http://xml.apache.org/soap/docs/guide/serializer.html
If you really want close alignment between your
XML inheritance hierarchy and instantiations of Java
objects representing user agents, what are the
arguments *against* SOAP at this point?
Inheritance for device-reprentation objects sounds
great to me. But I've written enough device drivers
to be biased -- it seems to be the nature of hardware
that everything is a BuggyVersion subclass of the
ideal gadget. Hard to see keitai as being any
different, but haven't gotten my feet wet yet.

Maybe that is what they were thinking of a way to
