2004-03-20
==========

XMLParse2.py
Stopped overwriting .blogTitle, adding a field .blogName to store the name
of the syndicated blogger.
* XHTMLWriter.py, planet.css
Added (heavily modified code) from [TRS] to make it show the name of the
blog when you hover over the name of the person. The name of the blogger,
and name of the article are now linked (this is not obvious after changes
to planet.css).
* Added FOAFWriter.py
A plugin to XMLWriter to do FOAF (Friend Of A Friend) XML feeds. FOAF
actually seems quite complex in what it can tell you, however the FOAF
feeds from the Planets is quite simplistic. This should suffice [YAK].
* Added OPMLWriter.py
A plugin to XMLWriter to do OPML.
* update-planet, launch-update-planet.sh
FOAF and OPML support.
* sidebar.html
Mentions of new syndication.

2004-02-09
==========
* Added XMLParse2.py
XMLParse2 is a wrapper to feedparser by Mark Pilgrim.
This required a slight change to the base API, as
feedparser does the downloading for us. According
to [TRS], using feedparser and a good caching
system will drop our download requirement significantly.
* Added extra/feedparser.py
Mark Pilgrim's feedparser version 3.0-beta-14 from
http://diveintomark.org/projects/feed_parser/
* Added CacheHandler.py
CacheHandler and CacheObject are objects for dealing with
the caching of blog items. It will allow us to store
preparsed blogs in cache/ for retrieval if a new download
proves to be unrequired.
* planet.css
Added underline for date/entry links, because [TRS] did not
even realise they were links. I'm sure not underlining links
it a big usability faux-par.
Added default link style for .item
* sidebar.html
Changed the text slightly.
* XMLWriter.py
Added a (feed) link to the sidebar in the sections "feeds".
This links to the actual XML feed we are syndicating.
* update-planet
Modifications to including caching as well as changes to the
API used by XMLParse2, this breaks compatibility with XMLParse
(the original).
* Added Changelog
This file. Mentions changed stuff.
* Added faq.html
This should be self explanatory, really.
* ucc.png
Improved logo from Hourann Bosci
