Fixed it for ya.

Thanks. We're supposed to pull data from geonames regularly, but I don't think we currently update the place names from it. I'll look into it.

Dopplr doesn't currently do time-level trip start/end points. The API is written the way it is for future expansion, so I don't break all API-using apps as and when Dopplr gets better at things. Sorry about the confusion there. You can send _just_ '2009-03-01' as the start/finish if you want to be sure about the day that Dopplr uses.

A comment on the question "Can I get a refreshed Annual Report?" in Dopplr:

They're all done, and you should have got a notification about it in a recent journal email! If yours hasn't been regenerated, can you drop me mail at ti@dopplr.com with your username and I'll have a look for you. – Tom Insam, on April 04, 2009 08:02

Fortunately, Fire Eagle itself does the Right Thing here. From http://fireeagle.yahoo.net/developer/... -

"In order to avoid conflicts where a more accurate location is overwritten by a less accurate one, Fire Eagle keeps any levels of the location hierarchy that have not been directly contradicted or updated by a subsequent update"

We just send the city information. Fire Eagle handles overwriting bad or not data.

I'm sorry about that. I had a stab at it, but couldn't see anything wrong in your calendar feed. Can you by any chance remember the name that was causing problems?

About the information leakage - It's true that if you give away the url, you're leaking things. This is why the url contains a token and is therefore unguessable - we don't really expect you to give it away to anyone. It's for your use. I'd prefer using proper HTTP auth for this personally, but so few calendar apps support this it doesn't work in practice.

I'm working on them at the moment. A lot of them should be updated now, I'll send out some sort of notification when I'm all done.

I've fixed that for you, assuming that your Dopplr username is also JamesC.

Regenerating a new set of reports will happen Real Soon Now - lots of people have asked for it, but it's not a trivial operation. You'll get a message in your journal once I've got it done..

Ok, that was weird. Looks like yours didn't upload in the first place. I've fixed it for you, sorry about that.

Tom Insam replied on January 15, 2009 12:21 to the problem "The API method for 'fellows_travellingtoday' seems to be broken" in Dopplr:

I've changed the way this method is implemented, and it's working a lot better for me now. Hopefully this has solved your issue..

Thanks for letting us know about it.

Aaah, unfortunately Tumblr don't support the metaweblog standard, so we can't post trips to it. I hope we can add it in the future, but till then it's just not going to work. Sorry..

Tom Insam replied on December 18, 2008 10:50 to the question "What is a blog endpoint?" in Dopplr:

The endpoint is a piece of MetaWeblog arcana that tells the Dopplr server how to talk to your blogging engine. Ideally this should have been auto-discovered when you told us the address of your blog - can you tell me where your blog lives so that I can try to find out why that didn't work?

Until then, there's a useful list of endpoints for various blogging engines here: http://ecto.kung-foo.tv/docs/pgs/tocE...
