The Services module for Drupal was created to provide a standardized way of supporting communication with external applications and Drupal. XML-RPC, JSON, AMFPHP and REST are just some examples of protocols that can be used as communication mediums. It's a great module which adds a lot of flexibility to Drupal, and it has just been ported to Drupal 6 with a Drupal 6 development branch.

Thanks, Scott Nelson and Marc Ingram for the help in putting this together.

Any word if D6 will have a translation service - would be nice to add to the list of included services.

ie:

* node service
* user service
* taxonomy service
* system service
* views service

Great idea

Neat idea, I made an issue for it.

pushing/cloning/copying/pulling nodes between Drupal sites

I was just introduced to the Services module and how to use it with Flash/Flex on Sunday, and it looks fantastic. I am wondering if there is any way to use Services to copy nodes between Drupal sites. ideally i would like to have push/pull/clone buttons that would let users clone nodes from one site to another.

I have heard that Dries wants to see Drupal 7 do more stuff along these lines. But in any case, it seemed to me that Services emits pretty much all the data you need to make a new node. Why can't one Drupal site's Services get cross connected to another site's Services? Has anyone yet seen anything like this?
