Capture and ping the links on publish, just don't change it just then. The major hurdle is getting the correct link to ping, not the change, which is just regexp. That can be filtered on 'the_content' when the post is being displayed. You'll need to change your regexps, but it'll work properly with other plugins that affect the post content. Maybe give this a higher priority so that it's the first thing to affect the content.

Pinging their latest post seems like a hack... but I've been having trouble thinking of a better way... On changing before saving - I went back and forth on that myself... one thing is that it can be an expensive operation, and so I only wanted to do it once. I'll benchmark it as a filter and see. @aditya - It basically only works if both have the plug-in — I'm not even doing RDF auto detection just now (WordPress won't do it for me because @ma.tt hates trackback).

Currently, you're altering the post content before saving to the database. It'll be better if made the necessary changes to the text as a filter for 'the_content', while just sending the trackbacks on publish. I am a little fussy about my post content not changing, but also because I use Markdown to write my posts, which *will* interfere with this. Another thing.

Maybe if you got the latest post (from the feed?) and sent a ping to that in case you couldn't find the RDF info on the home page? Broadens the scope a little more :) Ah, looks like you find the trackback function as well :)
