fwiw, you could create custom feeds for keywords using yahoo pipes pretty
easily. Maybe not the ideal solution, but requires no development time :)

Well, I'd still like to be able to get feeds for keywords, too. For
instance, with all the file stuff I've been doing, I'm curious to know
what kinds of FileField problems people are dealing with. If I could
just set up a feed for FileField, knowing it would give me a daily
digest of *everything* the community is saying about it, I'd be in
heaven. Other people would be interested to hear chatter about
"newforms-admin" (and "nfa"), "1.0", "streaming uploads", etc.

I've got an email out to Alex Aster, the guy behind djangosearch. If
he's interested in adding some features, this may well be moot. If
not, I think it might still be worth pursuing.

So ... a new mailing list to discuss how to address the
ever-increasing number of communication outlets? Sounds like a great
idea. :( I don't know what it would take to manage something like that
though, so whatever works.

Bah, simultaneous thread-splitting.  Send any replies to the other
"djangochatter" thread.

Mmm ... I like.  There's a *lot* that goes on out there, and it tends
to be in several different places; having something slurp it all up
and spit it back out to-order would be nice.  The Sphinx search engine
(not to be confused with the documentation tool of the same name)
would be a perfect fit, methinks; it's been doing a phenomenal job
indexing disparate nuggets of data and serving them up in an
integrated search for our new project at the Onion.

Ugh, time.  I have a bad habit of assuming I have more of that
resource available than I ultimately do.  :)  I'd definitely like to
help, but I don't think I could assume a driving role at this point.
(Chicago Djangonauts, languishing taghelpers patch, proper multiple
