Remote management

[. Dj]

Hi,

I need to remotely access to jForum to get new posts and reply to from another application.
How can I do?
Reding old posts (from 2005 to 2007), it seams the only way to do this is perform http post requests. We can say this is a basic REST API, but not so nice!
In addition how to manage login and cache?

Thanks

DJ...
