XML-RPC API

Hi, everyone.

I'm the primary developer for ElJay, an Android client for sites based on the LiveJournal codebase. Right now, the client has a pretty decent feature set for livejournal.com, but varies in ability for sites based on that code.

Dreamwidth, obviously, deviates from the LJ code a great deal. I am currently working on getting DW circles working as first class filter providers in the application, and would like to eventually support some of the other less documented features like viewing the friends list and supporting the inbox. Generic posting for DW works just fine.

Generally, on LJ, I look through ljprotocol.pl to decipher how to get these features working, and that works well on LJ and those who have updated to the latest LJ code. However, this file disappeared at some point in the Dreamwidth Mercurial repository, and now I'm lost. It seems there are a lot of DW fans using Android, and I'm getting badgered. :)

So, to make this short: It looks like ljprotocol.pl became LJ/Protocol.pm, but some of the calls don't seem to actually map to what I see in that file. Are there certain options shut off for DW in production? Is there another file I should be looking at that corresponds to /interface/xmlrpc?

I appreciate any help, and forgive me if this is the wrong community to post this.

Hmm, they should still work, and if they don't, it's a bug. Which ones are you trying to find?

There are a few methods that have been deprecated, however.

Did the other two comments get you what you need? Clients are awesome and I want to make sure that we support them as much as we can, so let me know if you still need anything.
