I actually tried to do the port to the suds library, and there was more pain than what I noted in the bug report. Suds was a library that I worked with quite a bit in the past, so I thought I would be able to make the port happen, however I never did get suds to make the requests that debbugs expects. If anyone else is willing to give it a try, I am interested in knowing if it is even possible with suds. The issues I ran into are outlined in this stackoverflow post: http://stackoverflow.com/q/21071589/1032785 The underlying issue is that what the debbugs API calls an "array" isn't really an SOAP array. I think the best solution is provide a new version of the debbugs SOAP API that implements proper SOAP types or add REST API.
