a WSDL contains 4 things: XML schemas, a description of your service's interface (i.e. what operations does it support - like getCreditScores), a description of the protocol your interface is bound to (i.e. SOAP), and a description of where your service is located (i.e. a URL). Each WS has different operations. So its really mapping those operations (inputs and outputs) to the Penrose data structures. We will utilize new "dynamic client" functionality which can help  avoid the xml muck. In essence, it will dynamically build classes for your wsdl - i.e. a CreditScore class which represents <CreditScore>. Penrose Studio will have an interface to map these classes to/from LDAP. 

Idea: To use Groovy so you can use web services without compiling a client at build time. just do "def client = new Client("my/wsdl/url")" and you can do things like... client.getCreditScores("someUser")

This require a WS-Adapter, Listener, Studio Components and Scripting.
