Standalone TrackBack

The standalone TrackBack implementation is now released. This tool allows anyone with a server capable of running CGI scripts to send and receive TrackBack pings, and display those pings on their public site. Instructions for integration with other content management systems are included in the documentation. It is also a good reference point for any other tool developers interested in integrating TrackBack into their own systems.

This tool is being released under the Artistic License.

The standalone tool can be downloaded from here, and the documentation for the tool is available both in a README inside the distribution, and in HTML form here.

We are also releasing updated technical documentation for TrackBack. Hopefully this will provide more information to aid tool developers in integrating TrackBack.
