What with all the XML announcements, I figured I'd let you all know that I'm nearly done writing an XML-RPC client and server library based on D. Currently, it uses Andy's XML library, although I can easily change it to use one of the libraries in mango.
The client uses mango.http.client, and the server is a servlet.
Do you have any interest in including it in mango (once I switch XML APIs) or should I put in in a separate project? |

Awesome! I would suggest continuing using Andy's XML stuff for now. I am still a ways off on a working XML parser (spare time ain't what it used to be...)
Keep posting status on this thread as you move on. |

As well, let me know once you've got that working parser. Andy's XML library is great for it's simplicity, but it's not a REAL XML parser. Doesn't handle anything but char[] (so no full unicode support) and it also doesn't handle whitespace correctly (actually, I fixed that one.)
So I'm interested in a fully compliant parser. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. |

As of right now, I am only working on char[], waiting on some solid Unicode support from Deimos. Once that is in place, I could definitely use the help using Deimos' unicode stuff in the parser.
There is also a lot of other things you can do to help. Since the code I have posted up is mechanically and manually ported from java, all comments are gone, so there is no documentation.
Also, classes that actually have implementation (NamespaceSupport, for instance), could be refactored to maintain the public interface, but still become more D-like, and lose some of the java idioms it has inherited.
Plenty of work for a dozen people |

This would certainly be most welcome under the Mango Tree! |
