Blogger has transitioned to using Atom for their API. I think that we should reconsider what APIs to provide in the BlogAPI project - replace them with something more modern.

The list of possibilities that I could come up with is as follows:

AtomPub
Blogger
Blosxom
Conversant
MetaWeblog
Movable Type
WordPress
Tumblr
Squarespace
LiveJournal Blogger
Google Data Protocol 2.0 (supported by MarsEdit for Blogger)

Here to request AtomPub. (As have others.) Is that on the roadmap at all?

For the initial release, i think BlogAPI will support everything that the 6.x version supported. Building AtomPub support can be done in a contrib module, though. BlogAPI 7.x-2.x is based on Services, so should be pretty easy.

To handle non-xmlrpc backends, just need to download a services server module and then write a module that implements hook_blogapi_info, hook_ctools_plugin_api, hook_services_resources, and all the callback functions. Easy.
