This book is a quick reference designed for speedy access to frequently needed information. It does not, and cannot, tell you everything you need to know about developing web services in Java. In addition to the books just listed, there are several valuable (and free) electronic sources of information about web services:

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) web site

Although much of the existing technology underpinning web services was developed independently by groups of companies such as Sun Microsystems, IBM, and Microsoft working together, most of those technologies have now been adopted and are being standardized by the W3C. You can find the latest drafts of the specifications currently being worked on, plus technical reports that document the earlier work, including the specifications for SOAP and WSDL, on the W3C web site at http://www.w3c.org.

The OASIS web site

The Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) is a not-for-profit organization that is leading the development of standards in the e-business arena. OASIS is one of the sponsors for ebXML, which uses SOAP as its underlying message transport mechanism, and is also undertaking web service-related work in the areas of distributed management, interactive applications, reliable messaging, and services for remote portals. You can find the current state of this work at http://www.oasis-open.org.
