I've just run into the fact that the structure of the XML returned by webservice.php has changed between 2.1.0 and 2.1.2. The <search> wrapper disappeared and now my custom calls to the webservice will need to be updated. Perhaps it would be simpler to just put the tag back in.

FYI for anyone upgrading.

This is very interesting - I think it probably changed in version 2.1.1, but either way, I was not aware that I had removed that tag - sorry for the confusion! Also, if you are using a language that supports JSON structures (like PHP), you may want to use JSON instead of XML for the webservice - it keeps the response very small and encoding/decoding is much faster. Thanks for the tip about the <search> tag!
