[gradebook2-dev] Gradebook2 webservices

[Thomas Amsler]

That would be one way to extend the existing Sakai (Axis) SOAP service
endpoints. Gradebook2 uses REST (JAX-RS) to communicate between client
and the server. So you could potentially expand on that by providing a
new REST resource that returns the required data. Both approaches are
valid.
