Does WebAPI support SOAP? I’m trying to write a SOAP Server in MVC4 and whilst I can do it in WCF it seems that WebAPI is replacing this but I see no ways to utilize SOAP in this yet, just JSON / XML using a REST Style interface.

To quote Scott Guthrie: The last few years have seen the rise of Web APIs – services exposed over plain HTTP rather than through a more formal service contract (like SOAP or WS*).
So I would say no.
