Brian, your comments are spot on.

Note that the array in the below XML-RPC call would look like so in YAML:

  - Name: Joe Bloggs
    Address: 1 Disk Drive

The RPC call itself is expressed by YAML.rb's RPC protocol like so:

  --- !okay/rpc
  addcust:
    - Name: Joe Bloggs
      Address: 1 Disk Drive
