Is the MetaWeblog API still supported? I ask because while researching XMLRPC, the Cook Computing library and implementing MetaWeblog API, I clicked a link that took me to MSDN that states the topic has been removed.

There is a link there that takes me to new docs for Windows Live SDK. On the new page i cannot find current info on MWAPI.

I am using EF, MV3, and VB.Net.

MetaWeblog API support had always seemed (to me) tenuous at best. Seeing as how the project hasn't been updated since 2003 (http://www.xmlrpc.com/metaWeblogApi) I think it is safe to assume that support has essentially ceased. That's my .02 anyway.

(Also, the Yahoo web group's newest post is from 2004 (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MetaWeblog-API/))

  • Interestingly Word 2013 offer this as a way to connect to generic blogging systems. It is good because even on Windows RT which does not allow plugins it is still supported. – Bernie White Dec 30 '12 at 21:16
