<div>Eric,</div>

<div>Thanks for the response. I completely understand the "don't reinvent the wheel", it's just the documentation doesn't say anything about that, so I wasn't sure if that was the conclusion I was supposed to come to. Thanks for clearing it up! I'll take a look at the metaweblog API and see if I can get that working.</div>
