Yeah, good point, it's definitely worth taking a look at this as well.
 Unfortunately it also doesn't support C# out of the box, though.

Thrift also seems like it may be more focused on defining service
definitions -- you can define things like method calls with it --
which is a little more like D-Bus.  Beagle at this point only really
cares about serializing data, so some of the power of Thrift is
diminished.
