-The protocol is based on XML, and it's strictly request-reply. The client sends requests to the server, and waits for a reply; the server never sends a reply without getting a request from the client first. Both requests and replies are terminated with the control character `0x03`. Requests are inside `<boinc_gui_rpc_request>` elements, and replies from the client are inside `<boinc_gui_rpc_reply>` elements (in both cases there is a %x03 byte after the closing tag).

 Note that the core client (RPC server) doesn't support pipelining of requests (pipelining means sending a batch of multiple requests without waiting for a reply, then getting all the replies together; this improves latency). For compatibility, pipelining must not be used.
