+ @li The URL pattern is relative to the @ref apiroot.
+ @li If the @e source parameter is not supplied the source of the status will default to 'api'.
+ @li The XML response uses <a href="http://georss.org/Main_Page">GeoRSS</a>
+ to encode the latitude and longitude (see example response below <georss:point>).
+ @li Data uploaded via the @e media parameter should be multipart/form-data encoded.
