I tried to find some backup tools for jroller, some only backs up the recent 30 entries in RSS feed, some does not handul unicode characters. By referring the python/xmlrpclib and MetaWeblog API documents, I wrote a simple backup tool, you could download it here. (But I did not find a good way to get tags for entries.) You may need to modify the global variables, like blogid/user/passwd.
#!/usr/bin/python import xmlrpclib blogid = 'yongsun' user = 'yong.sun@sun.com' passwd = '**********' host = 'http://blogs.sun.com' server = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy(host+'/roller-services/xmlrpc', use_datetime=True) num = 1000 ... ... ... ...Please note that the passwd is the "Weblog Client API Password", it's probably your original login password, anyway, you could set it in your profile page.
