Alter Aeon and Web 2.0

The main Alter Aeon game server exports a handful of things in XML format for external developer use. Right now, we have no schemas set up for this purpose, so you'll have to figure out how to parse the data on your own. That said, the keywords should be pretty obvious, and the data structures are not that large. If you run into a field that you don't understand, please notify Dentin in game, or even ask other players and developers on the bovine channel.

The currently available XML outputs are:

• https://alteraeon.com:8081/xml/eventlog
  This is the 'player event' log, and it records various events of interest including leveling over about total 90, high level backstab, and quest completions.
  
  
• https://alteraeon.com:8081/xml/wholist
  This is the 'who' list. It's a list of who is currently logged into the game and visible. The name field can be used to look up the player.
  
  
• https://alteraeon.com:8081/xml/players/tarrant
  This is the XML data for the player 'Tarrant'. Any player name can be looked up here by using a different name in the URL.
  
  
• https://alteraeon.com:8081/xml/boards
  This is a list of publicly visible boards on the game, with html and xml links to each.
  
  
• https://alteraeon.com:8081/xml/board/8
  This returns the properties of board 8, as well as a condensed message list on the board without message bodies. Html and XML urls are included for each message.

  This syntax returns a single message from board 8, including the message body.
