XML-RPC interface for discussion groups

[Steven Livingstone, ITS, SENM]

I have developed a first-cut COM component to implement an XMLRPC client for
Automation aware products.
I have created and modified discussions on the Discussion Group directly via
Word - pretty cool.

I also created a basic stand alone editor (still in what ever comes before
Alpha development) which doesn't require Office and talks directlty to the
DG via XMLRPC.

Anybody wishing the COM dll or *basic* Word editor should mail me - I plan
on doing more work on the editor when I get time.

Cheers,
Steven
