---++ODS Weblog Meta Weblog (XML-RPC) API

Notes: The "content" is a struct (unlike in bloggerAPI), so it can contain the following standard keys: 
	
<verbatim>			
{
   string    title		 - for the title of the entry; 
   string    description	 - for the body of the entry;  
   string    dateCreated	 - to set the created-on date of the entry. 
   * string  userid		 - user made the post 
   * string  "postid"		 - post ID
   * string  link		 - link to the document 
   * string  permaLink		 - archive link
   int	     mt_allow_comments	 - the value for the "allow_comments" field. 
   int	     mt_allow_pings	 - the value for the "allow_pings" field. 
   string    mt_convert_breaks	 - the value for the "convert_breaks" field.
   string    mt_text_more	 - the value for the additional entry text.
   string    mt_excerpt		 - the value for the excerpt field; 
   string    mt_keywords	 - the value for the keywords field; 
   array     mt_tb_ping_urls	 - the list of TrackBack ping URLs for this entry.
  }
</verbatim>	
		  
- If specified, 'dateCreated' should be in ISO.8601 format.

- The members denoted with asterisk are available only upon retrieval operations (like getPost and getrecentPosts)
