[BioPython] biopython soap?

[Giovanni Marco Dall'Olio]

Does biopython use any SOAP service?
In that case, which library is used?

I would like to write a script to interrogate the NCBI dbSNP database,
using the soap protocol and these wdsl:
- http://eutils.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query/static/esoap_help.html

Does biopython provide tools to interrogate the ncbi database directly
from within a script? And how is it implemented?
Moreover, which library do you use for the soap protocol with python?
I have been pointed to suds[1], which seems the only one currently
developed. (there is also soaplab and zsi, but they seem to be not
maintained any more).
Or, do you recommend me any alternative method to soap to interrogate ncbi?

Thanks in advance...
