Excellent point, in this case the roles are reversed, there are several 
ways to achieve this:
- if NAT is not an issue, you can do one of these:
  - give Asterisk (through a config file) a static list of XMLRPC 
servers to send events to
  - provide a function that allows a client to register itself as a 
server to receive XMLRPC manager events
- if NAT is an issue, you can poll for events - Asterisk could keep them 
in a FIFO for each client that has registered an interest

XMLRPC is a great technology, but it is not particularly lightweight
