= Savon

Savon is a lightweight SOAP client.

Instantiate Savon::Service and pass in the WSDL of the service you would
like to use. Then just call the SOAP service method on your Savon::Service
instance (catched via method_missing) and pass in a Hash of options for the
service method to receive.

=== Usage example

  proxy = Savon::Service.new "http://example.com/ExampleService?wsdl"
