Many people find WSDL (and the new WSDL 2) to be hard to create, and hard to use, even with tools and other high-level support.

Tim Bray of Sun has been talking about Replacing WSDL. Candidates include Norm Walsh's NSDL and Tim's own SMEX-D.

It would be very interesting to get the developer perspective on all of this; feel free to post your comments to this blog.
