Blogging client - errors on setup

Question

Having updated to 10.5.3 on our Xserve running the Team collaboration services, I'm now trying to connect and use a Blog editor. I've followed the help file and am having some issues - even with one of the clients (ecto) that was mentioned in the help file. When I setup the account to talk to my server, I get the following message:
allTags() takes at least 1 non-keyword argument (0 given)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/caldavd/lib/python/twisted/web/http.py", line 598, in requestReceived
self.process()
File "/usr/share/caldavd/lib/python/twisted/web/server.py", line 150, in process
self.render(resrc)
File "/usr/share/caldavd/lib/python/twisted/web/server.py", line 157, in render
body = resrc.render(self)
File "/usr/share/wikid/lib/python/applexmlrpcserver/WebAppServer.py", line 72, in render
d = defer.maybeDeferred(function, *args)
--- <exception caught here> ---
File "/usr/share/caldavd/lib/python/twisted/internet/defer.py", line 107, in maybeDeferred
result = f(*args, **kw)
File "/usr/share/wikid/lib/python/applexmlrpcserver/MetaWeblogService.py", line 127, in xmlrpc_getCategories
tags = GroupSqliteIndex.allTags(howMany = -1)
exceptions.TypeError: allTags() takes at least 1 non-keyword argument (0 given)
This obviously is an error message passed back from the server to the client. Any ideas from anyone? I'd really like to have this working for remote posting.
Cheers,
John

I suggest that you give Ecto3 a try, download and install the Blojsom plugin: http://infinite-sushi.com/software/ecto/news/2007/12/blojsomblogsystem.php , restart Ecto3 and try to create an account with this url: *http://<server name [:port]>/RPC2*, setting the System to Blojsom, the username and password. Now you should be ready to use it.
This worked for me on the latest Mac OS X Leopard Server.
