Pocket Blog Beta 1 v0.1.5 Released

See the Pocket Blog Download page.

Improvements:

Blogger Users: Pocket Blog probably hasn't been working for Blogger sites for some time. Pyra has been silently breaking from the published Blogger API spec, and while Pocket Blog will happily ignore data that it doesn't understand, the extensions exposed a bug in my XML-RPC handling. If you've been receiving an "Object Required" error message when updating a Blogger weblog, this update should resolve the problem.

Grrrr...

Pyra has been silently extending the Blogger API, presumably to support some Blogger Pro features (like titled posts). Why aren't they using the MetaWeblog API, which supports titles and is designed to be extensible? NIH syndrome?

Unfortunately, the changes exposed a bug in the XML-RPC handling for "PocketBlog". If you're a Blogger user, and you've been getting an "Object Required" error message when updating, Pocket Blog v0.1.5 should provide the fix. Hopefully this will be my last release under eVB...
