access to posted comments via XMLRPC

[censia]

It would be nice to have some kind of access to the posted comments via XMLRPC.

The API's that are used for XMLRPC are standards. I don't know that we want to fiddle with standards, though there is the WordPRess API.

I point back to this ticket as one to champion as it would allow you to create your own XML-RPC class for whatever you want, though in most case API editors won't support them so it might be moot.

Adding features to XML-RPC that would expose comment information is something that we've brought up before. If you are interested I recommend joining the wp-xmlrpc email list ​http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-xmlrpc

@technosailor -

You can already add your own XML-RPC methods and override existing ones with the current code, that ticket isn't needed in order to do that.
