I haven't done much with Lua either, but I've had it on my radar for a few 
years for precisely such situations.  However, after looking at the Lua 
xml-rpc binding, I decided to complete my own native code instead, just to 
minimize the number of layers involved.  Since there are so few exceptions 
to the value-types in the structs, it's easy enough to have a bit of 
conditional code to work round it.

Thanks.  Considering how much is provided by OGO, and the help on this 
list, AND how easy you and Helge have made getting a working installation 
going, I'm astounded that OGO is not better known.  Ninety percent of the 
things that have slowed me down in this evaluation have been to do with 
getting my own installs of Postfix and Cyrus working, rather than problems 
with OGO.  I'm very happy with everything I've seen.  I'll get round to 
learning ObjC soon, and start looking at the code too.
