Ben, I've got the differences between webhelpers.feedgenerator and
Django's current feedgenerator, and I'm trying to figure out whether
it's worth upgrading to the Django version.  I also noticed a few
missing features and spec contradictions when I tried to use it this
month.  AND I need to implement GeoRSS for work.

It was last synched January 5th, and there have been 6 Django updates
and 3 WebHelpers updates since then.  The WebHelpers updates are a
rfc3339_date fix, and new properties 'generator', 'source', and
'published'.  The Django updates are:
  - "handle missing language specification"
  - "use correct time zone for Atom"
  - "add a number of callbacks to SyndicationFeed for adding custom
attributes and elements to feeds"
  - fix xmlns regression and add attributes to <rss> tag.
  - more robust date->string conversion.
  - documentation

The Django code looks refactored and more flexible, maybe.  Were the
updates you made to implement Django changes, or independent things
you wanted?

So I can either import the Django version and try to apply the changes
you made if they're still needed, or I can ignore the Django version
and modify ours, which would then lead to further divergence and
difficulty of synching later.
