Response to: XML-RPC battles

I'm aware of these workarounds. As I've noted there are a number of different solutions including breaking from the specification to support UTF8. I would be curious to hear what users working with languages that don't fit into ASCII think.


There are different degrees of smart. Smart workarounds. Yes. Smart implementation of international character support. No.


"XML-RPC is so deployed it just can't be changed, not by anyone."


This is at the heart of my point. If XML-RPC cannot be evolved then indeed it is not the right thing for a publishing API to go forward with.
