Its been a while since I've posted here. I've been completely headsdown for the last seven months at Good Technology, building our first release of what is now the industry's best mobile web browser. It boasts a variety of features such as asynchronous download, compressed data and sophisticated content transformation capabilities that make it IMHO the first truly usable mobile device frontend to enterprise applications. We've now just shipped and I can take a breath and start posting on web services topics again.
In fact, as director of server software here I'm also working on some interesting mobile web services technologies that I'll be talking more about in coming posts.
In the meantime, I'm most of the way through teaching a web services course. I'd love to get feedback here on the content of the course. As far as I know its the only course focus on building schema-first coarse-grained document-oriented web services. Things are going great. Tonight, I'm having one of several industry luminaries, Roger Sippl (founder of Informix, Vantive, and Visigenix), come out to talk about web services clients and web services-oriented composite applications, centered on his work at AboveAll. Should be a great lecture.
