I totally agree with the point that a massively bloated library is less
good than a simple library. That's why I like XML-RPC. It's the simplest
thing available and will work fine for our purposes.

Most things support XML-RPC so most things should be able to embed it. Of
course if you had to talk to Freenet via CORBA you could just plugin in a
CORBA interface for yourself. But I think the best choice for the
"standard" client protocol is XML-RPC because it's so simple and tiny.
