Last time I checked (July 2002), the
consensus seemed to be
that ns_xmlrpc was substandard and the best way to use forward for
using xml-rpc from an AOLserver/OpenACS environment was to use
TclSOAP. An indeed, the latest version of TclSOAP, 1.6.6, was just
released Jan. 25, so presumably it has advanced much more since
then...
Note that the Tcl package difficulties discussed in the old thread
above are supposed to be gone in AOLserver 4.0.
