Thanks for letting me know.

I know I need to look through the Ruby bug tracker for issues related  
to these libraries and address them.  I saw at least a few XML-RPC  
issues in there.  Could I get added to the Ruby project on Rubyforge  
so I can respond?  My Rubyforge login name is bbazzarrakk.

I've used it a few times.  I find that a combination of it and the  
Queue class in the thread library can sometimes handle simple  
networking tasks.  I have no idea how much others use it though and I  
do admit that I switch to EventMachine for the bigger tasks.

In case it matters, GServer is a dependency for xmlrpc/ 
httpserver.rb.  If we unbundle GServer, those users will need to  
install it to get that functionality back.

Did you want to discuss CSV in Ruby 1.9 now?
