hi derek,

thanks for clearing that up. i'll stick to fatsyndication then for  
1.6 (and a souped up version of the default rss_template.pt for my  
other projects) but am looking forward to working with vice after that.

btw are you attending the conference in naples? kai diefenbach and i  
will be sprinting on commenting and that would fit nicely with  
syndication (i.e. feeds for comments etc.)

cheers,

tom
