Generally "planets" just aggregate existing feeds, they don't provide servi= ces=20 to create the feeds. A feed URL is really just a URL to a RSS-formatted=20 resource. (Most content management systems, e.g. Drupal or Joomla provide = a=20 number of feed URL for [subsets of] the content; there are also free "weblo= g"=20 services that also give you a feed URL.) Hackergotchi is stupid slang for = a=20 small image that can be placed beside your feed items, I'm not entirely sur= e=20 what the etymology of it is. If we wanted to, I suppose we could provide weblog services to developers. = =20 Maybe on git-scm.com or something. I'm just thinking out loud here, though= =2E =20 I don't even know if there's real interest in something like that. And=20 personally, I'd rather be writing patches than maintaining a Drupal=20 installation on devblog.git-scm.com or whatever. =2D-=20 Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,=3D ,-_-. =3D.=20 bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-'=20 http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/ =20 --nextPart58699583.DxjXmLsk0X Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkl3klEACgkQdNbfk+86fC1c6gCfSjTy5HywZMhbhUur/9lt2V1+ df8AnjDvKiLKlidn/Aj3Eud2TPD/xLsP =ArtE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart58699583.DxjXmLsk0X--
