Consider the followng example: one company has got a Zope application running on
a single server. This applications need the components of e.g. the supplier of
the component running on a different server. So I don't want to mirror both,
because the both companies are more or less independent. So I assume the only
possible is XML-RPC (with its limitations of restricted data types and so on)?
