[Zope-CMF] Re: [Plone-developers] CMF NewsFeed / News aggregation

[Doug Hellmann]

Hi, Jeff,

I missed the original post, so sorry for responding in this part of the 
thread.  Anyway, I wrote the CMF NewsFeed, and use it on my site every day.  
At one point I was reading headlines for a couple of dozen news sites, but 
I've scaled back because I found I wasn't actually interested in all of those 
sources and some of them were duplicates.

Why don't you want to run ZEO?  I thought about other designs for the feed, 
but didn't want the database update to be controlled by page views, and 
didn't want to write something that posted to the portal via HTTP, so that 
left a ZEO client.  It was actually a lot easier to do that way, anyway.  I'd 
be happy to help you set it up, if you run into trouble.

Doug
