I was waiting to release Excorporate so that I was sure EWS support was complete before doing the merge. To be clear, making EWS work involved extending soap-client's for XML Schema Definitions in general ways. There is nothing EWS-specific in that work; nothing that advantages EWS over other SOAP services. The resulting improvements found bugs in soap-client's support for other services like Debbugs. I feel very strongly that Excorporate's rejection from GNU ELPA has no bearing on merging these general soap-client improvements. (As an aside: I believe that, once merged, the new soap-client will provide the closest thing that Emacs has ever had to full XSD validation support. I've seen talk of implementing XSD over the years on emacs-devel; someone motivated may want to take a look at factoring "xsd.el" out of soap-client.el.) Thomas
