(2009-10-30) Microfeed Spec Library

Micro Feed is a specification and a reference implementation of client-server architecture providing access to various information sources that have a feed-type interface. Examples of those feed sources include MicroBlogging services, such as Twitter, FaceBook, JaiKu, Qai Ku, and LaconiCa. By utilizing Microfeed architecture, a client application can focus on user interface, while the actual feed fetching is done in the background independently. The communication between a local Microfeed server publishing information about feeds and a client application displaying that information to an user is done with the DBus Messaging following the publisher-subscriber principle.
