Hey ,

First of all please forgive me that i ask, but what is wrong with the  
'.' key on your keyboard? It seems to generate an extraordinary amount  
of ....'s :-)

Using the meta data service you can retrieve all the gadget meta data,  
and construct an iframe that points to shindig again (that renders the  
gadget for you), so you have all the tools that are required to make  
an open social server right there :)

The only thing you'd have to build is a social data connector, either  
in PHP if you want to use the PHP version of Shindig, or in Java if  
you want to use the Java version. Those are simple enough to code up  
using the examples provided that even if your not very familiar in  
either language it's still relatively easy to do.

If you take a look at: 
http://modules.partuza.nl/gadgets/files/container/sample-metadata.html 
  you'll see how the meta data works, you post the gadgets you want to  
know about to it:

POST:
{"context": 
{"country 
":"US 
","language":"en","view":"default","container":"default"},"gadgets": 
[{"url"
:"http://www.google.com/ig/modules/hello.xml","moduleId":1},{"url":"http://www.labpixies.com/campaigns
/todo/todo.xml","moduleId":2},{"url":"http://www.example.org/fake/fake/fake.xml 
","moduleId":3}]}

And you get a json response with all the information about them:
