recent changes atom feed

[Aaron Swartz]

infogami should come by default with an atom feed of all recent changes

Aaron,
Which atom module do you prefer?.
short googleing brought up atomxlib
it seems to be top scored @ pypi, (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/atomixlib/0.6.1a).
Yet, it is not packaged in a single file

I don't think we need a module if we're just writing; a template
should be fine.q

Dearest Aaron,

Two more questions:
a) How can I override the default output (site.tmpl) so this templates will output the atom-xml feed only.
(if you view the source of http://crosscompile.org/atom/recentchanges you can see the whole atom output within the html page).

b) I originally wanted to make a generic atom/rss that will be able to handle all the kind of pages (as well as page's history of changes) and hook in the every url (?m=atom or ?m=rss).
(something similar exists in jottit).

Unfortunately, there is a problem, the amount of will on my side is not enough owe to the lack of documentation. If you got any document that explains the fundamentals of infogami and relationship between its components (types, macros, templates, pages, etc.) that would be very helpful.

I sort of got a few free hours every day in the next few weeks (finished a great project and waiting for the next one to start) and I would be glad to use this time to get to know Infogami and contribute to as much as I can.

(this was long.... sorry)

Anand is the one to ask on this stuff.

I tried to clean up the wiki frontpage a while ago, to make these kind
of things more straightforward for beginners...

Also, feel free to drop me a private mail, if you want to ponder
anything specific. I am always up to reading and explaining a piece of
Python code. :)
