+:mod:`xmlrpc` --- XMLRPC server and client modules
+==================================================
+
+XML-RPC is a Remote Procedure Call method that uses XML passed via HTTP as a
+transport.  With it, a client can call methods with parameters on a remote
+server (the server is named by a URI) and get back structured data.
+
+``xmlrpc`` is a package that collects server and client modules implementing
+XML-RPC.  The modules are:
+
