Hi all,

For the last day, I've been playing with running XML-RPC servers over I2P.

Thanks to eeProxy, and the fact that XML-RPC is done over straight HTTP, 
the task of getting XML-RPC working over I2P is very simple, just a few 
steps:

1) get the XML-RPC server up and running
2) with the I2P routerConsole, create a server tunnel for this XML-RPC
   server
3) for XML-RPC clients using this server, configure these to use I2P's
   eeProxy as an http proxy server, and 'http://my.xmlrpc-server.i2p' or
   'http://i2p/destbase64string' as the URI

With the Python XMLRPC client library, 'xmlrpclib', there's one very 
annoying oversight - no provision for an http proxy.

So I've stuck up a python lib on www.freenet.org.nz/i2pxmlrpc.py

This lib defines a class 'I2PXMLRPCServerProxy' which takes care of all 
this. You just instantiate it with a base64 dest (or a hosts.txt 
hostname), and use it as desired.

The lib file can be executed, which will run a demo.
