Hi Edoardo, Both accepting and sending JSON formatted data is a handy feature. As you've already discovered sending back JSON is trivia with adding the filter in the Abdera Ext. project. Accepting JSON (ATOM) data is a different beast altogether. Currently, the team I'm on is going to tackle this by using another open source project that will transform incoming JSON to ATOM XML so no changes are required to the Abdera codebase. This is a work in progress but it is one way to handle this issue.
