We are seeing a general tendency away from RPC towards either ReST for
client-server architectures or messaging middlewares for peer-to-peer
architectures.
If you are interested in working on alternative proposals, then one
possibility could be to add a client-side for the Boost.Http project:
https://github.com/BoostGSoC14/boost.http
If you like to work with binary protocols, adding CoAP to the above
project could also be useful.

We already have Boost.Serialization and Boost.Fusion that are capable of
serialization.
