Hmmm, now that I have engaged my brain I think that this should really be 

"move Red Hat's Bugzilla::RPC & Bugzilla::RPC2 to upstream's 
Bugzilla::WebService"

I think they are passing most parameters by single hash.

Related to bug id #426239

A solution foe this bug, That I attempted and it worked was to have another
xmlrpc.cgi file for Bugzilla/RPC2/* called xmlrpc2.cgi which will be exactly
similar to xmlrpc.cgi only little changes will be applied so using historical data 

current LOC in xmlrpc.cgi = 91 LOC 

so it will be similat for xmlrpc2.cgi

I agree with Kevin. This bug should probably be removed from the requirements
list in favor of just making our current RPC1 API work with the upstream
WebService structure. In doing this we will also feel the benefit of the named
params of RPC2 as upstream is already doing similar in their WebService code.

Do you agree we should close this?

I agree,, as in the process of making out API work with the upstream we will be
converting the parameters to hashes anyways as how they do already in the
upstream  the have hash ref called $params passed to all of their xmlrpc functions 

closing
