Hi,

Im developing ReSTful APi for opencaching.pl. It can be also easily
integrated with all opencaching clones. Im asking whether you would be
interested in including support for that in geohunter.

We plan to give ability to list caches, show details, download GPX
file, show caches nearby. We also wan to give support for posting log
posts.

I can provide URIs for discussion, because frankly it is mainly
developed for geohunter and beagle :)

Hello

To the extent that someone wants to do the coding for GeoHunter, sure it's interesting.

We already have an integration with the bcaching.com API. That would be a good starting point in terms of making the coding simple and possibly to get an idea of how to design the API if you haven't so far.

Some bcaching API documentation is available here although I don't think it's complete:

One starting point in the geohunter code is here:

http://code.google.com/p/geohunter/source/browse/trunk/GeoHunter/src/org/geohunter/activity/sources/MenuActionUpdateBcaching.java

Sure send some links to discussions. I'm not personally interested in coding this but someone else might be.
