[bloggerDev] Re: Use the blogger API to publish blogspot posts to my site?

Thanks for the comments. I think you are probably right: better to
use the data API rather then using the iFrame technique.

Speaking of which, I came across this Google Code project which
includes Python code for converting data between the different
blogging systems.
http://code.google.com/p/google-blog-converters-appengine/wiki/ProductConversionsMatrix

I think this code will be useful as an example of how to read the data
I need.
