Hi, Jochen,

please do not contact me privately for questions on XML-RPC. Always
use either of xmlrpc-user@ws.apache.org (which I cc), or
xmlrpc-dev@ws.apache.org.

3.0b1 is out, 3.0rc1 hopefully within four, and 3.0final within eight weeks.

In version 3 it is suggested to use Calendar objects, which are
equivalent to xs:dateTime. (Think of it as XML-RPC date objects plus
timezone.)

Honestly, I do not know. If you've found a good solution, very well. I
am open for patches in the same direction than on the client (in which
case I'd check whether they are actually required :-).
