Hmm I'm getting "File Not Found" back when I try to post from Aggie. Something I'm doing wrong?

Joe and Sam: A few questions and comments. (1) Is there any possibility on the horizon of the Comment API support some form of authentication? (2) The answer to (1) is significant for me, because it will determine how (or if) I try to get the Comment API working with JournURL. Without some formal method of establishing identity, tbe most I can do is drop Comment API posts into the sandbox with Trackback pings, and I don't know if that's really worth the effort. (3) Y'know, the API could be of much broader use if it supported a method for creating a discussion, as opposed to replying to an existing one. For example, it could give birth to general purpose clients for web-based forums. Off the top of my head, all it would take to start a JournURL thread would be the addition of a valid RSS ... but where would the Comment API client get that list? And of course, this also depends upon the answer to (1).

Roger, 1. There is no support right now for authentication. Do you have a specific proposal? 3. That's a good question in general. For example, if you use categories in the RESTLog interface, where do you get that list from? Here again if you have any concrete proposals let me know.

Roger, I think that the standard authentication built into HTTP would do, e.g. basic, etc. When a blog reader posted a comment to your CommentAPI endpoint, you reply with a 401 error and the blog reader should notice, authenticate the user and bundle the appropriate authorization bits into the HTTP header in the standard HTTP way.

The latest Syndirella code in CVS supports this as well.

OpenLink Virtuoso (http://www.openlinksw.com/virtuoso) include a weblog engine, and this engine includes support for the CommentAPI amongst other blog related APIs (Client and Server Side).

My weblog is an example of a Virtuoso Weblog Engine based Blog and it is a live demonstration of CommentAPI support (server side).

I added basic support of wfw:commentRss and wfw:comment to serendipity a while ago, a PHP-blog application (www.s9y.org)
