[XML-SIG] Standard methods for turning and object into an xml document.

[Rich Salz]

ZSI comes close:
class Foo: pass
class Bar: pass

af = Foo()
af.z = "z attr"
af.x = 12
af.quux = (1,2,"34", u'skiddoo')

from ZSI import *
import sys
sw = SoapWriter(sys.stdout, envelope=0)
sw.serialize(af, TC.Any("your-name-here"))

print '- ' * 30
bf = Bar()
bf.my_a = af
bf.more = 'less'
bf.d = { 'k1': 'v1' }
sw.serialize(bf, TC.Any("your-other-name-here"))

gets you this.  It's close; finding the errors is left as an exercise.
