Re: [DotGNU]Re: [arch-users] In defense of (the idea of) having an XML-RPC api

[James Michael DuPont]

Dear Dotgnuer,
I am looking for some support here. Basically I have been having a
conversation on the arch list about DGEE. They aguments are against
webservices and xmlrpc. And against dotnet in general.

Does anyone here care to help out?
