I've now written a script that does this via XML-RPC. It's dead easy, actually. It's however also slow, and looks like it takes at least five hours. But that's to download all metadata, and there is quite a lot of it. :) Syncing after the initial download is reasonably fast. I wonder if the initial slow download is a problem? It certainly makes it harder to run tests/queries on the complete dataset if you need to wait a day before you can do it. But if you want to set up a third-party service it shouldn't be great hindrance. It takes way longer than that to develop the service. :) -- Lennart Regebro: http://regebro.wordpress.com/ Python 3 Porting: http://python-incompatibility.googlecode.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
