Fredrik Lundh's xmlrpclib.py looks ready for the Python standard library, if Fredrik agrees. The license is right. I'm not sure but I believe that Eric Kidd's version is C or C++ code that *could* be linked into Python? This seems less attractive because there will always have to be a separate distribution (for non-Python targets). But maybe the motivation is wrong. We should decide to include (or not to include) xml-rpc based on a user need, not based on political motives. There may be a user need; Fredrik, do you know how popular your xmlrpc module is? Technical issues: should the server stubs also be included? It might benefit from also including the sgmlop.c extension. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
