I couldn't find anything on the blog or the related sites given examples of the code being used to run this GarageBot other than it was running on uClinux. What code/libraries (if any) are you presently using to connect to the API? The curl guys are working on building oauth support direct into curl, so that should provide a fallback for these kind of apps. You could probably use curl now provided you had a way of generating the oauth_nonce parameter (http://oauth.net/core/1.0a/#auth_header). If you could divulge a little more about your setup, and what kind of constraints you have to work within, we might be lucky enough to have someone in this group that can think of a solution. -- Glenn Gillen http://glenngillen.com/
