[mapguide-internals] Summer of Code Projects

[Robert Bray]

The real question is for what methods? Some of the XML output is 
hierarchically deep. I think it could all be represented by JSON, but 
would we really want to do all of it? Would we also have to document the 
corresponding object structures?

Note I am not objecting to the idea, just wondering how far we take it. 
We need to define the scope in order to contemplate the effort.
