Someone here wrote that MS has dropped its commitment
to DIME (see link below). I could not find any other info on this
from googling around. Has MS made this public anywhere?
Links would be appreaciated.

And, if DIME is to be dropped, what will be used instead for
file attachments with SOAP? I know about encoding everything
in base64 but this is a very inneficient method for large attachments.

Thanks Nicholas.

Following your link and its refs, it looks like DIME is still the way to go
until
WSE 3 is released.

Bernard,

MTOM is going to be the mechanism which will handle attachments. Check

You can expect support for MTOM in WSE 3.

Hope this helps.
