[Vienna-rss-patches] Vienna: blogging protocol patch

[Justin R. M. <jus...@ma...>]

Hello,

I'm the developer of the del.icio.us client, Pukka, which Vienna
supports. I just did a bugfix release related to blogging protocol
calls not working from Vienna (my fault... bad string handling when
Vienna doesn't send the post body).

However, as you'll see here:

http://codesorcery.net/2007/08/16/pukka-161-vienna-bugfix/

Vienna behaves differently from both NetNewsWire and NewsFire when it
comes to this text selection in the active article being passed
along. To wit, Vienna doesn't pass along either the full body or any
selected text using the posting protocol's DataItemDescription.

I've attached a patch against the latest Vienna SVN that should fix
this... please consider it for a future release -- it's relatively
minor! This passes any selected text in Vienna as the body, which for
Pukka at least shows up right in the post. It's very handy and I'm
going to add my patch to my blog post anyway, just for early adopters.

Thanks and have a great day!
