The first APIs that we are building are for manipulating bugs, we don't have anything for announcements and uploads at the moment. I think it should be pretty straightforward to do this though, and I'm happy to provide answers wherever I can. One detail you will need: we don't challenge for basic auth but you can send the headers in order to authenticate, rather than messing about with cookies in your script. We have a bunch of python doctests that use zope.testbrowser to test our pages, if you are interested I can try to dig up some snippets from the tests for announcements and file uploads to help get you started (dunno what language you are planning to use). -- Elliot Murphy | https://launchpad.net/~statik/ -- launchpad-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/launchpad-users
