As soon as I posted details of my new Atom API library to the SixApart ProNet mailing list, I got an email from their Manager of Platform Technology, and then another one from Anil Dash, both with hopes that I could include LiveJournal support.
I’m now in touch with one of their people who’s handling the actual implementation of their APIs, so hopefully I’ll be able to work out what’s going on and add LJ support to the code library soon. At the moment, my WSSE authentication is failing on the second request to their API, even though it’s working on the first one… curious.
I’ve finally packaged up and released the PHP Atom API code I wrote as part of webpad. You can download it now and go crazy.
From a very straight-laced colleague of mine who I really wouldn’t have expected this from, in reference to the general attire seen on Halloween in the US;
“Girls just wanna dress up as sluts, that’s the bottom line.”
I can’t wait.
With a little prompting from someone who needed to known what license the PHP Blogger API code was available under so he could develop something based on it, I’ve finally added a license in with all 3 downloads available. With confirmation from the other 2 authors involved, all 3 packages are now available under a BSD-style license. Enjoy.
