No, the protocol will be much higher level. It will define how an editorial workstation connects to a content management system. It will run over XML-RPC of course, but it will define a set of calls, which if implemented on either side, will connect to the other side. This makes both parts of our system replaceable, which is a committment we have made in the past and take quite seriously.

Sounds good. Will this protocol overlap with WebDAV, or does it do something entirely different?

And it will be low-tech and common-sense, and not require a PhD in Computer Science to understand or appreciate.

Now that's something I like to hear. There's nothing so simple as a human-readable wire format.
