Then I'd say you are working with a black box, letting the WSDL be
generated for you.  That may work great, until you need to interpret or
read the WSDL or schemas while debugging or troubleshooting.

I'm advocating:

Determine requirements.

Write database if needed and create business logic.

All done.

There is no thinking about how WSDL or XML is presented because the .Net
web services generate WSDL/XML on the fly at runtime.

Writing WSDL and XML by hand is definitely a hammer and chisel approach and
was probably required in the early web services days, but not today.

Tell me if I'm missing something obvious, but I have been writing web
services in .Net for several years without ever having to deal directly
with XML.

Huh?  You are advocating the code first approach?  That's like writing a
bunch of programs and then designing a database to fit what you wrote.
