Microcalls, a new simple protocol

Hello, my name is Agusti Pons a web developer and founder and CTO of omatech.com

I'm proud to invite you to take a look at

http://www.microcalls.org

A microcall is only an XML-dialect used to communicate a Client and a Server in a standard and easy-to-use way.

The client part (usually) is implemented in java and consists in a simple POJO that can understand the XML messages returned by the server responding to a given call.

The server part is, in fact, only responsible to return standard and correct messages in response to a given call (in fact a URL with or without parameters).

Of course the server usually does a lot of work when receives a call (for example insert a record in the database) but, from the client standpoint, the server only returns a message "explaining" the result of the call.

In this weblog I'll put news about the protocol and changes in the website !

Thank you very much for your attention.
