Hi Trevor and Andre,

You'll be glad to hear tht I've fixed that oversight
for the next version. However, I was not aware of a
timeout error.
And revXMLRPC_CreateRequest is a _function_ not a
command, and it returns an internal ID, which just
happens to be the XML tree that is used for storing
the request, and points to oher data in the XML-RPC
library internal data structures.
I think I've covered most of the reported bugs in the
XML-RPC library, but if you encounter something that
isn't in bugzilla, please do so asap, so I can get on
top of it.

Best regards,

Jan Schenkel.
