WSE & Web Services link interface

I’ve been trying to get into WebServices again lately. I implemented my first “production“ web service at the start to middle of 2002 - it even used DIME which was the “new thing” then. Since then I’ve only done one other application that used web services in a fairly cool (but trivial to implement) way. Now I’m trying to learn about WSE, prepare for indigo and prepare for certification exam 70-320 (the last one I need to pass to become an MCSD.NET). I borrowed Kieth Ballinger’s Web Services book off Dominic which was an easy read and had some good insights as well. I’ve also read a few interesting articles:

WS-Security Authentication and Digital Signitures (old WSE 1 stuff, still good)
Performance Considerations for Making Web Service Calls from ASPX Pages (hint - make them asynchronously …which leads nicely into)
Asynchronous Web Service Calls over HTTP with the .NET Framework

WSDL
An old (december 2002) but good article on Schema-First design by Yasser Shohoud
Inside WSDL with .NET Attribution (instead of designing your schema first learn what attributes you can use to shape it)
Response to the previous article by Christian Weyer showing some problems with the article’s code and WS-BP conformance.
