René and I are planning modifications for an event driven core which in our
opinion would also be a solid foundation for controlling TYPO3 via SOAP,
XML RPC or whatever. 

I think that if we create an official long-lasting SOAP solution for TYPO3,
it should be based on PHP5 and of course come with a proper WSDL definition
(which we'd have to create manually or via the PEAR classes because PHP5
currently doesn't support creating WSDL, right?).

But back to the event thingy: We are really looking forward putting that
into reality, but it definately will be later this year, so it's no quick
solution if you need it now ...
