Jochen Wiedmann resolved XMLRPC-130.
------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 3.0rc1)
                       (was: 2.0)
                       (was: 1.2)
                   3.1.1
         Assignee: Jochen Wiedmann

As long as noone provides, for example, a customized type handler, I have no intention to fix this. In practice, most servers or clients should work well with it.

> The double value of  (for example) ".000004" is serialized by XML-RPC as "4.0E-6".  Unfortunately, this does not comply with the XML-RPC spec (http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec) which says:
> "At this time, only decimal point notation is allowed, a plus or a minus, followed by any number of numeric characters, followed by a period and any number of numeric characters."
> So, Java's conversion to the exponential format is not allowed.
