[MOBY-dev] Calling Moby from R / SSOAP

[Paul Gordon]

Hi Jason,

There is no canonical object format (e.g. DOM) for Moby, but the XML 
format is.  You might want to check out how I did it in Java to give you 
an idea of the doxen or so envelope, job, container and primitive 
objects you need to create:

instances
