RE: [backstage] New APIs... What next
Change to flash's crossdomain policy file on bbc.co.uk. Currently Flash's security sandbox won't allow flash hosted on non-BBC (sub)domains to load data like rss feeds. Its crossdomain policy file disallows access to data for all but *.bbc.co.uk hosted flash: http://www.bbc.co.uk/crossdomain.xml Yahoo allow non- *.yahoo sites already for Pipes: http://pipes.yahooapis.com/crossdomain.xml so you can get BBC data that way by using Pipes as a proxy, but it'd be good to get data direct from the source.

Re: [backstage] New APIs... What next
Matt, I presume the 'generic minutes' from BBC wireless reporters around the globe is a non-starter? I would still like feeds of the subtitles from the BBC channels, so they can be used to index the visual content - including the BBC regional news at 1830-1859 Some way of getting the correct "location" (lat, long) for a BBC News web page would be great too - could map the content on maps then... iPlayer content feeds, as I suggested a while ago too...
