上面这个是关于ImetaWeblog的一些定义
下面是针对wordpress的
As odd as it may sound, WordPress’ XML-RPC system is built on others. This makes sense from a development standpoint – why reinvent the wheel when others have done such a great job? But it can be incredibly confusing and downright frustrating when you start working with the WordPress API and have to turn to metaWeblog’s or Blogger’s documentation to figure something out.
The fragmentation of the API documentation is what turns many off from XML-RPC development at first. That said, the APIs are stitched together quite elegantly when you look at the server code. To make things simpler, we’ll deal with one set of API calls at a time. The most basic are the metaWeblog calls, so we’ll start there.
