Hello,

I agree that the Memento is probably not necesarry for achieving backwards
compatibility.

Google Protocol Buffers (or ApaPche Thrift) could also be interesting :
* better performance than xml encoding/decoding  (not yet tested it myself
though)
* you can update the message types without breaking existing code [1]
* support for Java, C++ and python

I will do a benchmark ASAP.

regards,
Maarten
