Heads-up, we're making some changes to the XML-RPC interface for UserLand's aggregator. It's definitely not frozen yet. The implementation is out to the Radio-Dev list, but that's not frozen yet either. Still diggin!   In world news, Senate Republicans plot revenge on Vermont's Jeffords, whose defection took them out of the majority. "Would Vermont's Mount Snow be a good spot for the national depository of nuclear waste?" muses the NY Times. The UN Security Council unanimously backs Dubya's plan to squeeze Iraq to boost US oil interests. And our favorite cancer patient, Brian D Buck prepares for major surgery next week. We're all rooting for ya Brian! Scripting News in RSS now supports skipHours, based on the info in this file. Next step, now that we have an example to work with, teach UserLand's aggregator to respect it. Most popular weblogs among readers of Joel on Software. Two years ago on this day we were wondering what was to become of the American political system eWeek: "Adobe's PDF document-distribution format may seem entrenched among computing consumers, but that isn't stopping Microsoft from trying to throw its weight behind a competing publishing venture." Oil and Gas: "The US State Department has pushed back its planned meeting with Iraqi opposition leaders on exploiting Iraq's oil and gas reserves after a US military offensive removes Saddam Hussein from power." Wow it's wet here. The creek is a torrent. Power just came back on (8AM Pacific), it was out all night, starting around 7:30PM. Nice to exist by candle and flash light. Apparently Jake lost power too, no word from him on the implementation of the Aggregator API. We had hoped to release it to Radio-Dev last night. Sorry about that. After that, we're going to do a demo app, something in JavaScript that runs in the browser that talks to the aggregator over XML-RPC. The idea is that you can create user interfaces in any language or environment that knows how to do XML-RPC. Anyway, lots of mail to read to catch up. Ben Hammersley: "I'm off to pick up the Land Rover tomorrow, and then it's Eurotunnel, France, Belgium, Germany, Denmark and then over the bridge to Sweden." Hey have a great trip Ben. I've seen that bridge from the air, a couple of years ago when I went to Copenhagen. Sounds like an incredible adventure. |
