+# Lunch meeting over maemo-blog
+
+<div class="p">
+ We had a lunch meeting with [bergie](http://bergie.iki.fi/), [tigert](http://tigert.com/), [rambo](http://www.nemein.com/people/rambo/) and [mdk](http://www.mdk.org.pl/). Among other fun stuff, we talked about some ideas for maemo-blog:
+
+*   make the "engine" a dbus service and separate UI
+*   The DBus API should provide at least the following
+
+*   getting a list of configure blogs
+*   getting a list of posts in a blog
+*   getting a list of categories in a blog (preferably with post counts, if possible)
+*   creating categories (if supported by the blog API)
+*   creating posts to a defined blog
+*   creating posts to the default blog
+*   upload media (preferably through gnome-vfs URI's in the post content to keep us indenpendent of network, cache network/bluetooth files locally?)*   The UI should also have a DBus API for the following
+
+*   Open a "prepared" item in editor for posting
+*   Show a "choose blog" -dialog for posting*   Finally implement the UI changes proposed by tigert
+*   Clean up the editor (preferably as a widget in it's own library)
+*   Replace category menu with tag cloud (needs tag cloud widget)
+</div>
+<div class="p">
+ I was planning on making the post query/sending functions quite generic, so the user would list the fields they're insterested, something like this:
+ <pre>
+org.maemo_hackers.maemo_blog.get_posts(string:blog_id,string:field1[,string:field2...]);
+org.maemo_hackers.maemo_blog.send_post(string:blog_id,string:field1,<type>:field1_value[,string:field2,<type>:field2_value...]);
+ </pre>
+ The latter would require fields "title" and "description".
+</div>
+
+ Suggestions, comments etc welcome.
