$1000 for mediarss support in drupal is very high price to pay. but also provides a lot of attention/motivation to the community.... if this needs to get done expeditiously.
i asked JD of ourmedia to talk to jay about their mediarss module. I am sure its not entirely ideal and may be dependent on non-core drupal code, but the code could prob help if analyzed and it should be open sourced. however, looks like ourmedia has rss turned off. too bad. prob was straining the servers too much. sull On 12/5/06, Peter Van Dijck <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Didn't know that..
