Some feedback After my little Web Services tirade I received this note from Julian Bond: Re Why not XMLRPC? Note that it does support named parameters if you put them all into one struct. And you can nest structs and arrays, hence you can have arbitrarily complex types. And there's nothing that says it can only be used over http as the Jabber folks are proving. And any interop problems between toolkits were sorted out a long time ago. Which all makes XML-RPC just good enough and no more. And often that's a very good reason for choosing a technology. Looks like I need to do a little digging on complex data in XML-RPC, I really wasn't aware that it was possible. 8:14:30 AM
