A list of dicts in a dict does not return anything

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I am trying to return a structure from my server that would look like the 
following:
{'QueueElements': [
    {'Element': 
        {'CQ': str, 'ID': int, 'Name': str}
    }, 
    {'Element': 
        {'CQ': str, 'ID': int, 'Name': str}
    }, 
    ...
], 
'StatusCode': int}

I've tried other formats but Issue #30 suggested using this format so I've 
moved to that but I've always received {QueueElements is None, StatusCode is 
int}.  I'm not sure what else to change so I'm assuming there is some problem.  

I'm using 1.05a of pysimplesoap on 2.6.6 on RHEL6.2

Other info on my current setup
----------------------------------------------------------------

I have the following command set up (simply lists queue items on the server)
# on the server
# set up my call in an init routine
    self._dispatcher.register_function('list', self.list,
            returns={'StatusCode': int, 'QueueElements':
                [{'Element': {'ID': str, 'CQ': str, 'Name': str}}]},
            args={})

# the actual call
    def list(self):
        '''Returns a list of all queued items'''

        rtn = {'StatusCode': 42, 'QueueElements': []}

        # let everyone know we are working on the queue
        with self._hold:
            for task in self.test_run_queue:
                qe = {'Element':
                        {'ID': task.id,
                         'CQ': task.cqid,
                         'Name': task.name}}
                rtn['QueueElements'].append(qe)

        self._logger.info(rtn)
        return rtn

#on client
        resp = self._client.list(arg1=1, arg2=2)
        self._logger.info(resp.StatusCode)
        if(resp['QueueElements'] is None):
            self._logger.info('Appears as though there are no queued items')
            return

# and then the trace info

please close, found the issue.  apparently can't use resp['QueueElements'] and 
need to use resp.QueueElements.  Also, needed to the individual items from the 
list of dictionarys by doing:
self._logger.info('%# 4d. %s - %s' % (ret.Element[i].ID, ret.Element[i].CQ, 
ret.Element[i].Name))
