The code of the webservices won't rely on the already working http-xml 
remoting solution, but directly on the server api, written in Java. They 
will be actually running on the server.
Moreover, I do not plan to implement all the features that already exist 
for now with the http remote api. The idea is to propose a few functions 
available as webservices to help the occasional Daisy users (especially 
in non java environments) publishing and searching the repository server 
without pain. Instead of making some http requests with different 
parameters, they will be able to display with a single and simple 
command a specific document, or to display a list of documents 
responding to some search request.
Again, the goal of this proposal is not to implement new incredible 
features, but simply to propose a very simple way to do the most basic 
tasks with Daisy.
For example, we could imagine a content provider, which would consist of 
a Daisy repository server read-only accessible to some webmasters. Then, 
these webmasters (programming with ASP.NET for example) could 
dynamically show an article, or a list of articles in relation to some 
keyword. It is very easy to do that using the webservices (in .NET at 
least), at the condition that these webservices have been well done.
