----------------------------------------------

Hi Chirs,

I have tried restful url to get atom data from both Java/PHP Shindig like

htp://localhost:8080/social/rest/people/canonical/@friends?format=atom
htp://shindig/social/rest/people/canonical/@friends?format=atom

By doing this I got

PHP Shindig output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:osearch="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1">
  <title>person feed for id shindig:canonical (0 - 3 of 4)</title>
  <author>
    <uri>urn:guid:canonical</uri>
    <name>shindig:canonical</name>
  </author>
  <updated>2008-09-18T08:48:56+00:00</updated>
  <id>urn:guid:canonical</id>
  <link rel="self" href="http://shindig/social/rest/people/canonical/@friends?format=atom"/>
  <osearch:totalResults>4</osearch:totalResults>
  <osearch:startIndex>0</osearch:startIndex>
  <osearch:itemsPerPage>20</osearch:itemsPerPage>
  <entry>...first item...</entry>
  <entry>...second item...</entry>
</feed>

Java Shindig output:

<response>
  <entry>...first item...</entry>
  <entry>...second item...</entry>
  <filtered>true</filtered>
  <sorted>true</sorted>
  <startIndex>0</startIndex>
  <totalResults>4</totalResults>
  <updatedSince>true</updatedSince>
</response>


But according to OpenSocial 0.8.1 Restful protocol specification at 
http://docs.google.com/View?docid=dcc2jvzt_37hdzwkmf8 2.1

the response in Atom representation of Response should be like
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlos:osearch="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1">
  <author><uri>urn:guid:example.org:58UIDCSIOP233FDKK3HD44</uri></author>
  <link rel="next" href="http://api.example.org/..." />
  <osearch:totalResults>100</osearch:totalResults>
  <osearch:startIndex>1</osearch:startIndex>
  <osearch:itemsPerPage>10</osearch:itemsPerPage>
  <entry>...first item...</entry>
  <entry>...second item...</entry>
  ...
</feed>

As per the above results and specification I think the PHP Shindig is already returning correct Atom feed and Java Shindig not.

> Browsing through some test cases, something that i should've filed a bug about long ago floated back up:
> Our current RSS/Atom structure is incompatible with the iGoogle / Java shindig one; Field names don't match up.
> There's no strong specification for what the response -should- be, however it would be for the good-of-all if the response of Java and PHP Shindig were identical :)
> How to diagnose & fix this problem: 
> Create a 'Fetch an RSS feed' gadget, run in java and php shindig, rework the field names. The location of the code that deals with this is in:
> shindig/php/src/gadgets/ProxyHandler.php, line 78 - 140
