A recent post from the XML-DEV list. It appears that lots of people are
exploring the use of XML to marshall RPC parameters before transporting them
using HTTP GET/POST. I wonder how much of an installed base they'll have
before HTTP-NG hits the street.

Perhaps HTTP/1.1 needs an "RPC" method to take the heat off of POST?
