Hello Orkut Developers!
I'm developing an external application to interact with Orkut. As I
understand, I should use REST or RPC protocol. But let me clarify the
following:
1. Could I use Javascript API to access Orkut from my external
application? Or I can use this API with Orkut container? I found
several examples of applications, which could access user's scrap book
and send messages to user's friends. I think it's not related with
opensocial and it's just a hidden iframe or something else to connect
to orkut's account, right?
2. As I understand REST API currently supports only a few opensocial
features(getting user profile, getting user contacts, manage appdata
items, filtering paginating, sorting results). Are there any other
implemented features, for eg, what about 'activities' data type or
media items? If these features are not supported, when should I expect
the implementation? Also, are photos, thumbnailUrl name(givenName and
familyName), isOwner, and isViewer the only user profile fields I can
access using Orkut REST/RPC API?
3. There are no information about Orkut RPC API implementation. Does
it support the same set of features, as  REST?
4. There is a section in OpenSocial spec, which describes discovery
service (using XRDS), which is applied  against the opensocial
container to get all supported features. How can I access this service
using REST/RPC API? I tried, but I couldn't.
5.When the OpenSocial 0.9 spec will be supported by Orkut?
6.  Can I provide a callback in my gadget xml to my external app for
sending application user ID, after user installed the application in
his profile? I think that it could be implemented through makeRequest
javascript Call to my external application, right?
7. Could you provide some details about AppData items? What are their
usage? Does Orkut supports only 'letters' AppData items through REST/
RPC API? Can you provide me with the full list of possible Orkut
AppData items?

 I need the answers as soon as possible,
Thanks in advance.
