Jabber and Roller
This would be a much better post if I'd already developed the software, and this was an announcement. But I don't want to develop the software per se, I just want to use it. So I'm putting this idea out there in hopes that someone has already developed the software. My e-mail to the jabber-dev mailing list pretty much sums it all up.
Hello, My name is Matt Raible and I am a contributor on the Roller Weblogger project (http://rollerweblogger.org). I'm looking to add support for Jabber as a blogging client. Currently, we support the BloggerApi and MetaWeblogApi. What I'd like to know is if there is a project already that converts Jabber's XML files to XML-RPC calls - or if I could simply use an XSL stylesheet to transform and resend to my blog. Thanks, Matt
I'd love to add a Jabber Powered logo to my About page. I did some work with Jabber last year, basically just installing and configuring it - both very simple. The project I was on was also planning on adding support for creating new jabber accounts on-the-fly when a new user was created in our database. It's all XML, so it's probably all pretty easy. Anyway, I bought a Programming Jabber book and it's been collecting dust ever since. The cool thing about Jabber is if we setup a Jabber server (i.e. jabber.freeroller.net), then I think it'd be possible to blog via your favorite IM client. Please leave your thoughts and comments - and any links to anything that might already exists.
