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.
macros to generate and wrap functions, and a simple serializer that serializes in the same way that Protobuf and Thrift also serialize.
We already have Boost.Serialization and Boost.Fusion that are capable of serialization.
