Hi there, I am using MarsEdit 2.2.3 on Mac os x 10.4.11, my blog system is Micolog on Google App Engine, this system is based on Python.
My problem is that I can not download the categories created on blog system, or create local category.
Can anyone help me?
Hi - this is the first I have heard of Micolog. I will take a look and follow up here when I have a better understanding of its capabilities.

Thank you.
And if possible, please introduce me some blogs based on Python (means can distribute on GAE) and work well with MarsEdit.
I looked at the example blog and I think the problem is it doesn't include "autoconfig" information in an RSD file. This would help MarsEdit to automatically detect that it has WordPress-style features.
One trick you can try is to point MarsEdit at another WordPress blog temporarily, to get it configured right, and then switch the settings back to your micolog API Endpoint:
1. Open the blog settings for your blog in MarsEdit.
2. Make a note of the API Endpoint URL (you'll paste it back in a minute).
3. Change the home page URL temporarily to:
http://sweatertest.wordpress.com/
4. Click the auto-detect settings button again.
5. Now change the API Endpoint URL back to your blog, and change the home page URL back to your blog. Don't click Auto-Detect again.
This is a way of tricking MarsEdit into thinking your blog has all the modern WordPress features (like Tags) even if it isn't correctly autodetecting.
I don't know of any other Python-based blog systems off the top of my head. Maybe somebody else will chime in with information for you.

Thank you very much, Daniel. I will try this later.
Hi Daniel, I setup my MarsEdit according to you method, and I really can find and sync my categories created by server, but....... after I send out a new post with certain category, I find the post on my blog WITHOUT category selected. any advice will be appreciated.
In all likelihood this is a problem with the server software. You can examine the network chatter between MarsEdit and the server, to confirm that the expected category values are being set on the post you send:
1. Open MarsEdit
2. Select Window -> Network Log from the menu bar.
3. Clear the log if it's not already empty.
4. Try to send a post to the blog again from MarsEdit.
5. Copy the network log contents and paste here or in an email to me.
I will be glad to look and confirm that the categories are being set right.
Daniel
