Publishing via ROME

I just found a potentially useful API for Andrew’s RSS Goodness Publishing Project Acta Diurana

Propono libraries for web publishing via the IETF Atom Publishing Protocol (APP) and the XML-RPC based MetaWeblog API.

Sounds interesting – from the overview:

  • Atom Publishing Protocol (APP) client library, which makes it easy for your Java client and server applications to interact with APP services.
  • Atom Publishing Protocol server framework, which makes it possible for you to add APP server capabilties to your Java web applications.
  • Atom Publishing Protocol file-server sample: a simple file-based APP implementation that stores Atom entries and associated media files in a directory strcuture within your webapp’s context directory.
  • Blog Client library, which makes it easy for your Java client and server applications interact with blog servers that support either MetaWeblog API or APP.

Can’t wait to find an excuse to try it myself. It’s even given me ideas for some new project – think Growl ;-)
