- Isofarro 13y agoHe runs his own authoring system, OPML Editor (a derivative of Userland Radio / Userland Frontier). That listens on port 5337. So that's fetching something local, except it will only work on his box, possibly anyone else running OPML Editor on theirs too if there's some common shared code running in that environment.
- leephillips 13y agoProbably detritus recycled from earlier failed attempts at software like "Radio". I have a feeling that one of the origins of the palpable bitterness in Winer's writings, noticed by so many of the commenters here, is the round dismissal of a series of these projects over the past couple of decades.
