Greetings!
I tried today using Photon (iPhoto weblog export add-on) with Midgard
CMS (www.midgard-project.org). It basically works with Midgard's
blogging module, though for some reason the RSD autodiscovery doesn't
work so you need to:
* Input the MetaWeblog API handler URL manually
* Category retrieval failed on a default blog setup in Midgard
(there are no categories by default)
* Give some blog ID (Midgard doesn't use these, each blog has
unique MetaWeblog API URL)
* Identify the system as Movable Type or Wordpress
After this posting photos to the blogging module
(de.linkm.newsticker) generally works. However, I haven't yet
looked at tuning the settings for optimal Midgard compatibility.
Anyway, what would be even more interesting would be adding Photon
support into Midgard's gallery module
(net.siriux.photos). However, for that we need to extract the
original image, so that gallery can do the thumbnail and
other processing by itself.
To do this we need to figure out some default setup for Photon that
would work well. If Midgard would be added
to Photon's list of supported blog systems, would there be
possibility of having a custom field mapping done automatically?
Here is how the posted images looked on a MidCOM testing site:

Thanks for making this great tool freely available!
