   Re importer tool: There was this post linked on metafandom lately, where someone suggested a bunch of geeky features. One of it was a public API (programming interface) for the archive, which would enable everyone to program importer tools/plugins for their favourite applications/programmes. So the actual plugin programming needn't be done by A03 programmers, and the possiblibities what can be done with an API are huge.

      AFAIK, API is in the plans, it just hasn't been built yet!

      Ah, I saw that post! Yes, an API would make the creation of an importer (along with all sorts of other neat AO3 goodies, I hope) a lot easier, but I do hope that I'm not the only one that wants it specifically for easy uploading of fanart (though I'm sure it could have other uses).
