freshmeat-submit project is a script to submit updates to freshmeat.net.
It is designed to run from within a project release script, and uses freshmeat.net's XML- RPC interface. It is intended for use in project release scripts. It reads the metadata from an RFC-2822-like message on standard input, possibly with overrides by command-line switches.
freshmeat-submit accepts release information from binary packages named in the command line, or from an email-message-like data block on standard input, or from command-line flags.
Values set with command-line flags override those collected from standard input, which in turn override those collected from binary package files. The accumulated data is entered into the freshmeat database via its XML-RPC interface.
