    Oh, actually I think I just now see the problem. You're trying to submit a release but you POST that to the URL to update the parent project instead. Your API target should be http://freshmeat.net/pro…

    It was actually supported before, just not documented. I just updated the documentation to rectify this.

    There's no need for the ?format=atom part. A URL like

    Same goes for the project feeds. Just append '.atom' and you should be

    all set.

    They are totally consistent. But this consistency means they all

    qualify to be picked for the more info button. If you want to avoid

    that you have to rename them.
