As long as I do not know whether they behave the same or not, I cannot
simplify the name. Also SOAP1.2 will not be the last.

My idea is to move methods or parts of methods from SOAP11 into the
general SOAP base-classes during the development of SOAP12. The
offer is quite simple: if you can tell me which components can be
moved, I will release a modified version fast. After a few iterations,
we will reach clean code.

I would prefer to see many small steps, to reduce the chance that
your extension does not fit in my concept of the XML::Compile suite.

By the way, it is easiest to work with the raw sources, available
from http://perl.overmeer.net/xml-compile-soap/raw/
