Paul, 

You probably know as well as anyone that the one and only person you should
talking to about XML-RPC and its XML compliance (or lack thereof) is Dave
Winer.  Feel free to read through the archives of the xmlrpc@yahoogroups.com
mailing list if you haven't already.  If you can move Dave from his current
position, more power to you.  You'll do something that many other people
have been incapable of doing.

I'm done with this topic.  It's gotten way too far from python-dev-related
topics.  Probably should have cut it out of the cc list awhile back.
