I only had to do a small change in order to make the blogging bundle  
work with proxy servers. Attached you find the patch for the file  
blogging.rb, which is located in the Support/lib folder of the  
Blogging.bundle. The patch is for the Blogging.bundle included in  
revision 1183 of Textmate.

I changed the new2(...) method to set the proxy and added a text  
about "how to configure proxy settings" to the template text for the  
Blogging.bundle config file (com.macromates.textmate.blogging.txt).

To enable proxy support, you have to set and enable the TM_HTTP_PROXY  
environment variable (host:port of proxy server) in the Textmate  
preferences (Advanced->Shell Variables). If the variable is not set  
or disabled, the Blogging.bundle still works fine. So the patch  
should not break anything for non-proxy users.

A more elegant solution could read the proxy from the network  
settings for the current "Location" (configured in "System  
Preferences->Network"), but I haven't found out yet how to read these  
settings from ruby.

Please review /  change / improve these modifications, so the  
Blogging.bundle with proxy support could soon be available in future  
Textmate updates. :-)
