New FeedBlendr Backend Code
I am in the process of moving over to a new set of internal code for FeedBlendr to help with future enhancements, so you might see some funkiness over the next few days (although hopefully not!). The new version introduces a few enhancements, including some slight changes to existing features:
- Internal APIs use Atom-based formats where possible now (OPML stuff is still there where it makes sense tho).
- Added a custom namespace (fv, for FeedVille) to the OPML output, and also some other outputs to provide additional information to users/developers.
- Added some new output format options (look for them on blend information pages soon).
- Added some customization options for output formats for restricting the number of entries displayed and limiting output to headlines only.
- LOTS of internal changes, but those shouldn’t affect you 🙂
Hopefully all servers will be switched over to the new code-base by the end of today, and some new documentation etc will be available to detail these changes.
UPDATE 2007-08-21: This code has been fully deployed on all servers as of 2007-08-17 and appears to be working successfully 🙂
