Nobody would prevent you from registering "doc-literal" service. The 
problem is what does it mean...
The SOAP-WSDL project looks promising, but they still far away even from 
[XML schema support ("minimal conformant")].

Anyway I think it's possible to use for the moby. I mean that BioMoby is 
XML Schema incompatible, so there is no way to use it "right way".

My proposal (and Jason agreed with me) was to use Moby message "as is" 
inside a SOAP BODY.
This way only "moby" part of schema is needed (the ontology objects 
defined as "any").

The implementation is simple and taking into account that all the "moby" 
artifacts are the same for any service, we do not any schema parser at 
all...

Meanwhile, BioMoby is moving to err... unexplored direction, I'm moving 
completely to WSDL doc/lit services based on BioMoby ontology.
My last breakthrough was asynchrony based on WS-Addressing.

Dmitry.

P.S.
I just realized that you are working with Taverna.
I have no any experience with it, and there is almost no 
documentation... :-(

I created a java component (tree) to encode/decode/edit XML messages 
based on XML Schema and would like to convert it to taverna plugin (wsdl 
activity).
