The RSS will look like this:
http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/rss.cfm
It'll be loaded every 10-20 minutes and will hold the last 50-100 threads per
list (I'm still deciding on exact numbers).

The voting will be a link (no ready for people yet) which will be in the footer
of all posts. Anyone can click on it and get to a voting screen for a message.
The vote is basically:
not important
neutral
important
A thread message with enough important votes will be flagged in the message
display. A thread with enough important votes will be flagged as well. The point
of it is to allow people to indicate which threads and/or messages are important
for others to read. A new button on the site will get only the important
threads/messages for people who are in a rush or who are looking to compile
docs/faqs from the lists.
A perfect example is a thread I started a few days back in CF-Talk. The subject
had to do with causing a CF page to 'sleep' and come back on line. There was a
UDF mentioned on another list that I reposted. Very interesting and useful. That
message was important. A person or two saying that it was nice or that the owner
was being seen more was not really important. A message that expanded on the
java call used by the UDF would have been important as well. End result would
have been a thread of 4 or more messages with at least 2 of them listed as
important and the others not.
Eventually, some custom display code to hide the unimportant or OT posts to a
specific list (not this one as all posts are OT)can be added.
