What a bit of ironic timing.

Several months ago I wrote an AS XML-RPC client that I released as
open source. Since I just have the downloads and documentation on my
own site, it's not really as open for collaboration as I would like.

A couple of days ago I was thinking "I've been following the OS Flash
site/list since it started. I ought to send an email to the OS Flash
list and find out if this would be an appropriate project to host on
OSFlash".

So I guess I'm asking. Most of the OSFlash projects are developer
tools, e.g. MTASC, SWFMill. Obviously there are some that are more
along the lines of ActionScript code like ActionStep and ARP -- but
those seem "bigger" in my mind than just an XML-RPC client. (Maybe the
project seems less significant to me because I wrote it myself--but
all those other projects are written by you mythical Flash wizards =)

So anyway, do you think that a set of ActionScript classes that come
together to provide some common functionality (in this case, an
XML-RPC client) is something that is appropriate be hosted on the
OSFlash site? I think at this point having its own mailing list might
be overkill, but having a SVN repository would be nice, I guess.

Any thoughts?

Oh, by the way, you can see the current home of the project at this page:
http://probertson.com/projects/xmlrpc/

And also, I don't mean to detract from Matt's request at all.  This
really is something I've been thinking of asking about for a while,
and I just hadn't gotten around to asking it yet.
