XML-RPC version 3.0

I'm working on version 3.0 of my XML-RPC library. No timetable for sure, since I have four midterms, a homework, and a paper due this week. But after the craziness of this week is over I may get to work on it this weekend. So either next week or the week after may be likely for a release.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to take feature requests. Leave a comment, even anonymously, and tell me what you'd like to see. The following features are planned:

• I'm making it even easier to build servers. You may be able to do it in one line of code, we'll see
• Include SSL support. I've gotten this request a few times. I'm planning to include a separate and optional method to make a connection which will use cURL and support SSL. Does it make sense to also support HTTP authentication?
• You should never have to call XMLRPC_prepare yourself again.
• I'm probably also going to include my "method not found" method, just to save you from having to write your own. Not that it's hard, but it's only about 3 additional lines in the library.

What else do you want? Now's your time to make yourself heard!

feedParser

I should take a look at feedParser to see how it normalizes the different styles of RSS feeds. I already do it a little in my RSS aggregator, between .9x and 1.0, but with the continuing proliferation of different RSS formats including 2.0 I need to update it.
