I’ve not been following the blosxom list much of late, but I noticed a post today from a chap called Allen Hutchison saying that he’d started a Yahoo group to work on the development of a blosxom implementation of the metaweblog API, with possible future support for the Atom API. He’s also posted to his blog on the topic and set up a feed from there, too. Very organised.

I’ll going to keep an eye on this, although I’m not sure if I can take a particularly active part in the development right now. A few weeks back I started tinkering with an Atom client-server for blosxom and got a little code working before I put it to one side for a variety of reasons, but it’s something I’m meaning to get back to eventually, and it’s about time I started being a bit more active again.

Postscript: This post marks the creation of a new category for blosxom-related posts. In the past they’ve ended up in a varitey of places (there’s a couple of minor plugins here, for example), but I keep changing my mind. Perhaps I ‘ll be a bit more consistent form now on
