On to my questions: Has anyone yet been able to create an API around the BBC Programme Catalogue? It seems this would be the best data source to use so far.
the BBC Programme Catalogue is already one big restful API... which may be enough for your needs, depending... replace 'infax' in with 'xml' in any url and see what you get back eg http://open.bbc.co.uk/catalogue/xml/programme/ICYD984E http://open.bbc.co.uk/catalogue/xml/on_this_day/2003/8/13 http://open.bbc.co.uk/catalogue/xml/contributor/2221 - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
