[daisy] [GSoC] applying for the development of a .NET library for Daisy

[christophe blin]

I think that it is a matter of simplicity : WSDL is a lot heavier than
REST with embedded XML to do request and to transform the response

For example, try to imagine the complexity of a publisher request if it
was to be done via a function call.
Also, you will have to deal with complex type (for example the Document
type) and you do not have this problem with simple XML.

just my 2 cents.
