I was thinking of making OTRS into an XML-RPC client that communicated to an XML-RPC server on our CRM application. Now that I think about it, implementing an XML-RPC server into OTRS could produce many positive benefits. XML-RPC may be simple to integrate. The difficulty will be in writing an authentication scheme to provide access control of XML-RPC clients. This may not be a big problem since you have an existing user authentication & session management system and which may be adapted. I have a few pending projects that need attention, but I could provide code samples over the next few days. - Jm -----Original Message----- From: dev-bounces@otrs.org [mailto:dev-bounces@otrs.org]On Behalf Of Martin Edenhofer Sent: Wednesday, November 05, 2003 3:25 PM To: Development community of OTRS Subject: Re: [dev] API / addon documentation?

Thanks for the info on Ticket.pm. I will look into that shortly.
I have 6 years of experience with Perl and have deployed SOAP as part of a client/server application. I am beginning to shy away from SOAP due to it's ever growing complexity and over-the-edge data type definitions.
I recently joined the San Francisco Perl Mongers User Group and at the last meeting, there seemed to be a general consensus that SOAP is getting very bloated. Many of the attendees (including the group founder) were strong supporters of XML-RPC.
Fine. If I get (XML-RPC) help, then I could write the server part.
One of the tasks I have been considering taking on is to adopt OTRS to function with POP3S (POP3 over SSL). If I get around to that, would you be interested in reviewing it for integration with OTRS?
Of course! .-) PS: PostMasterPOP3.pl is using Net::POP3. If Net::POP3 would be ssl able, then it would be no problem.
