title: Android and data.gov
body: <p>I'm getting ready to start my first app, and I wanted to grab some data from exposed webservices at data.gov.  However, it seems that all the web services they offer are SOAP based.  </p>
  
  <p>I cruised <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/297586/how-to-call-web-service-with-android">this</a> question and I don't want to use ksoap2 if the overall community isn't happy with it.  That question is also almost 2 years old, and something might exist now that I didn't find via google.  (which is only ksoap2).</p>
