Can you people please explain why we need all of these competing
proposals? XML-RPC looks like a superset of WDDX (in that it has a concept
of "method"). It could be described as a superset of WDDX, couldn't it? 

LDO looks like a *subset* of WDDX except for the REF element type. 

Can't we all just get along?
