Thank you. Its because people like you test this out on different platforms that I can continue to improve weblogger.el and xml-rpc.el. >>> without these changes, the wrong APIs will be called, blogger.* >>> instead of metaWeblog.* > >>> This patch is dirty, I think it will break blogger for >>> metaWeblog. How can I make a better solution? I note that the Windows Live weblogs have RSD headers that specify MetaWeblog. The best way would be to use RSD to determine what to do with a particular weblog. Right now, it uses a MT-native call (mt.supportedMethods) to see what is supported. Obviously, if you implment MetaWeblog but mt, this will fail. Because of that, I'm not going to use the patch to weblogger.el. But it is clear that RSD should be my first priority for weblogger.el. If you would like to try to tackle it (since I'm not sure when I will be able to), I could help you out. > - (when mt_keywords > - (cons "mt_keywords" mt_keywords)) >>> This doesn't make sense, mt_keywords as a symbol is defined nowhere, >>> and Elisp report error Thanks for point this out.
