Hello, the first version of the GDATA server is already running and it supports all the CRUD actions base on a lucene storage. so the next thing is to enable multiple feed ( I wouldn't be a proper server serving just one single feed instance :). Basically the gdata - protocol description doesn't say anything about inserting new feed instances, the API neither. Lot's of possibilities are around to create an interface for inserting new feeds. XML descriptors per feed could be possible but that could easily become a xml nightmare. So what else could be provided... There could be a SOAP endpoint for creating/deleteing new Feeds or a secondary REST - Based Interface could be provided. This feeds could be stored inside the storage component including user account data (should we provide more than one user account for altering feeds?!). Quiet easy to use would be a administration JSP based component of the server, but guys don't forget I just have 2 1/2 month time ;). No problem doing all these extra features when SoC has finished. --> I thought about a mySQL connector for storing entries and requesting feeds in addition to the lucene base storage and BerkleyDB as well.
regards Simon
