[Koha-devel] Access to Koha API

Following on from my last email, I wonder if any thought has been given to exposing the Koha API to other external programs? It seems to me that there is a separation between the web-UI and library functions (in modules/C4) already, and of course there are command line scripts which use the library functions. (Library could be ambiguous in this context, I mean in the programming sense). Has any thought been given to exporting these functions via XML-RPC or some other RPC or web services type of interface? This would allow me to write my scripts in python, as well as other tools and possibly UIs to be written separately from the main Koha code. Thoughts? Cheers, Alex
