This was changed due to the fact that both cobblerd and things
interacting with the API might write files at the same time and the
other would have no clue about it. This lead to a lot of weird race
conditions and data loss, so it was decided everything should be done
through cobblerd over xmlrpc. I have at times considered writting a
REST API for cobbler, however I have not done so as I don't think
there's any real demand for it.

Thanks for the clarification James. Is there any point then in still having the API or mentioning of it anyway? Would it not be less confusing to archive mentioning of it on the wiki and concentrate on xmlrpc in the wiki? I would be happy to do the legwork to get it done if there is enough consensus.
