Hello Everyone :)
It was a long day but I managed to finalise a newsfeed from the
postgresql.org website.
You can see it at http://www.dotgeek.org/ on the right column
As you might now, XML Feeds, made available under the rdf/rss format
are a tremendous tool. O'Reilly on lamp is using this extensively
http://www.onlamp.com/ to aggregate news from several sources. They
would certainly add some news from postgresql and I am sure that many
of the postgresql users will be more than glad to add the news
in their website.
Basically everyone with a website and an rss parser can add the
postgresql.org news anytime using our raw feed at
http://www.dotgeek.org/pgnews/news.rss
The news are first parsed, then stored on a postgresql database in our
server. For the feed I used PHP, Pear XML_Serializer, and a custom RSS
parser.
On the next few days we will move on as planned adding a column at
dotgeek entirely dedicated to PHP&PostgreSQL development.
The first articles will be written by me and Hans-Jürgen Schönig.
The next ideal step could be XML feeds for the mailing lists.
Oh.. of course if Marc or Dave would like to see/try the sources for an
official adoption, all yours, not urgent thou.
1:25 AM here, time to go home. I will keep you posted on my Advocacy
initiatives, hope you don't mind ;)
All the best,
Regards
David Costa
