<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi All,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been looking over some posts on the mailing
archives about why can't myth gui do X, why can't I run myth in Y situation and
I wanted to run an idea past the dev list. It seems that gui and plugin
development would go significantly faster and be more open with a rpc service
layer for myth. Probably, for simplicity of coding against, a SOAP service
(yes, I know the reaction that word brings, but for ease of programming against
and client independence it really does win). How would everyone feel about
starting a MythSOAP layer that provided standard we services for the majority of
the gui operations? That way if people want to code their own gui website,
thin client, automated system, sms based system etc etc they could. By
opening up the use cases this way, I think you would allow significant
innovation on the application interraction side of things.</FONT></P>
