David, I'd be happy to. I'd like to give it a few more hours work and tidy up then I'll contribute what I have. It is embarrassingly rough at the moment. I should have time tomorrow. I'll add the thoughts I had while I was initially working on this to Jira tomorrow as well.

Is the work you have done something you could contribute back to the project? Even if it is fairly rough and low-level we could certainly put it in as it would be a good starting point. -David On Feb 13, 2007, at 5:06 AM, Rupert Howell wrote: > Hi, > > Over the last few weeks I've been doing some work on a site that > will be > gathering RSS feeds from other sites and displaying the headlines > accordingly.
