The last "it" is libvirt?
 
No, I was referring to the current HTTP/S-Expression protocol.
 If you need a web services interface, you're best bet is to start using 
libvirt today.  libvirt will encapsulate the change from 
S-Expression/HTTP to XML-RPC.
 Hmm, so If I need a web interface today, I can
chose between one that is going away soon and one that is not yet stable
to use?
 You probably don't have the HTTP transport enabled (the default is to 
just enable the domain socket transport).   If you post your problem on 
the libvirt list, we'll help you through it.
libvirt.org gives me timeouts...
 Not with the next release.  It will stay around for at least a couple 
more releases until there is a standardized and documented XML-RPC 
interface.
We're moving to an XML-RPC based interface.  The interface will be
standardized and documented in future versions of Xen (hopefully in the
very near future).
See http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Xend/XML-RPC
 
Sounds interesting. And the "S-Expression/HTTP protocol" stuff is what I
explained to guido, and will be gone with the next release?
