 * Hi,
 * I understand this plugin makes it possible for us to call almost all WP functions
   externally via XMLRPC.
 * But want I want to do is call one of my own functions available via a plugin 
   through XMLRPC. Will this plugin of yours make that possible as well?
 * Thanks,
    Paolo.

 * Hi Paolo,
    I would not rely on it for your functions methods due to the fact 
   that there is no way to guarantee in WordPress that my plugin loads after your
   plugin loads. This means that, in the top-down PHP execution, the functions from
   your module may not have been declared yet by the time my plugin instantiates.
   Due to the mechanism by which my plugin reads available functions, your functions
   would be unreadable in that situation.
 * You can, however, use the source of my module as an example for how you can expose
   the methods of your module similarly, though you’d have to implement the code
   directly in your module.
