Hello Jeff,

I have improved my OnlinePIM product with something called a 'BoxTool'.
The purpose of this boxtool is to create ... boxes :-)
More precisely: To give the managers of a portal the ability to control
the layout of the portal completely.
Now one of the box types you can create is an RSS Box. This box contains
a parsed RSS. It is based on the CMFNewsFeed product (but without the
ZEO stuff). It's not ready for a release, but the code resides in our
cvs repository (in the HEAD branch). Take a look at
http://www.mmmanager.org/downloads - at the bottom of the page there is
an explanation on how to get stuff from the cvs repository. We also have
mailing lists, bug trackers and other stuff located at that page.

Greetings,
Gitte Wange
