[Zope-dev] [Zope] App isolation

[Phil Harris]

I'd second the vote for xml-rpc/SOAP.

You probably want to take a look at Medusa for your xml-rpc server, it's a
piece of the proverbial piss, (Welsh slang for "it's easy").

I verified Zope and Medusa some time back against Dave Winer's validation
tests, and both came out well.  Zope seems to be one of the more valid
xml-rpc servers/clients.

The results of the validation tests are available on,
http://validator.xmlrpc.com.  My machine is http://www.zweb.co.uk.  It's
been running for quite a while now, with no hiccups at all (at least on the
xml-rpc front ;) ).

If you need to know anything else I'm more than wiling to help if I can.
