Completely specified or drop-dead simple.

Sam Ruby: Matt Croydon: Translating that into an XML-RPC call hurts my head. That's because the MetaWeblog API doesn't specify how to deal with required attributes.  Or with namespaces.  Or with nested XML elements...  Of couse, one could one by one address these items, and in the process reinvent XML.
It hurts my head too. I'd rather see a SOAP interface where everything is specified by WSDL, or a RESTLog-like interface where everything is drop-dead simple.
