Since I'm not an expert in webservice APIs and have 0 experience on that
matter , I'm perhaps not qualfied to design it ... :-)

All I can say is this , we're going to face a set of problems during the
development of the .NET compatible version.... Some problems which are
equally relevant for the better version .... I'd rather see how MS designers
solved them before designing (or even reinventing) the solution... Most of 
these problems will be abstract , so a review of the API may be able
to suggest a solution ...
