okay, the first test rss pages have been put up here. that's right, they're simply pulling from the generous feeds over at waferbaby. i haven't even added them to cron yet, mainly because I want to get as many of the news pages as possible setup. also, i'm not sure if I want to devote an entire subsection to certain sites, mainly because i'd like the sites to be aggregated into pages, so that i can quickly pull up all the news i'm interested in on just a few pages, rather than several. for now though, at least the system works. i have to manually run the perl script which creates them but this way i don't create a million pages with an errant crontab. i also removed the entire news section from the "latest" pages, mainly because if i have at least 5 new pages a day added up there, that won't leave much room for anything else. next up: further site aggregation and a little better formatting. we'll see...
