Yes, a SOAP/XML-RPC interface should be quite possible.  This is one of
the main reasons I went to the trouble of creating the Mono bindings.  I
need to create some sort of XML interface to LQL in the next few weeks.

I named the project Linux QoS Library before I realized that interface
parameters etc could be manipulated via Netlink.  I have no intention of
limiting LQL to just QoS features.  Eventually I'll probably stop
referring to it as Linux QoS Library and just use LQL.

As for combining my work with Thomas, I'm certainly willing to discuss
it.
