nntp//rss and Echo
Just a quick note to say that I'm closely watching the progress of the Echo project. I'm interested to see what transpires from the discussions, especially from a content syndication perspective. Once the spec becomes formalized, I'll look to include support for aggregation and publication, alongside RSS and the existing blog publishing APIs, within nntp//rss.
Isolani actually has already hacked some in. I dropped it in yesterday and it's parsing Mark Pilgrim's feed with no problems.

This is great - thanks for the pointer! I'll take a look at his modifications. It's possible that the soon-to-be-released 0.4 may include some early (n)echo support.
