TBufDataset in the bufdataset unit. It has support for writing data packages
and deltas (even in XML, I think).

It has no support for transporting these packages. That can be done using
WST.

Or, you can use Data Abstract from RemObjects (a commercial product), which
works with FPC and Delphi alike.
