I want a really good communication stack, doing SOAP (no - I 
don't want the dry old 'JSON' is best, 'SOAP' is bad argument - I 
got enough reasons to use SOAP in many solutions) and the one 
really good stack I've seen so far on SOAP is WCF.

It would be a dream to be able to define service contracts and 
data contracts in a smooth and slick way in D, but maybe it's too 
heavy. It took MS about 5 years to create.
