Don Park says: I think both Dave and Evan are responsible for the mess we have today and I see little chance of a universal Blog API emerging for a while. If I had the power to dictate things, I would have the Echo project adopt the union of Blogger API 1.0 and MetaWeblog API as Echo API 0.0 and extend it as needed without breaking backward compatibility.
Well said, Don. I couldn’t agree more. I can’t help but thinking that blog tool programmers are really getting shafted in all this nonsense. Thank you for putting into words what I was unable to.
