the compliant parser is the bit that's missing here. The client request
is some legacy code that simply filled in some XML TT templates with
data and a hard-coded specific namespace based on documentation  
examples.

The client "parser" just decodes the return XML via XML::Simple and so  
expects
a particular key name (based on the namespace) to find a key.

We are upgrading this client to use XML::Compile::SOAP on the client  
requests
as well, but wanted to mock up a WSDL-based test server to mock up the
real .NET-based server.
