+title: Raggle News, General Ideas, Status, and More...
+---
+
+<p>
+<a href='http://linuxbrit.co.uk/'>Tom (giblet)</a> wrote a script using <a href='/software/rubilicious/'>Rubilicious</a> to import <a href='http://opml.org/'><acronym title='Outline Processor Markup Language'>OPML</acronym></a>-format lists of links to <a href='http://del.icio.us/'>Delicious</a>. Check it out <a href='http://linuxbrit.co.uk/blog/2004/09/25/delicious/'>here</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Here's a couple of ideas I had for the next version of <a
+href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a>: searching for <acronym
+title='Really Simple Summary'>RSS</acronym> feeds via <a
+href='http://syndic8.com/'>Syndic8</a> (actually the <acronym
+title='Concurrent Versioning System'>CVS</acronym> version of <a
+href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a> already does this via an embedded
+copy of the <a href='/?cid=1314'>old version of Syndic8-Ruby</a>),
+saving your <a href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a> feed list as a <a
+href='http://syndic8.com/'>Syndic8</a> subscription list (free
+portability, also you could share your blogroll with other people, etc),
+one-click (or buttonpress, whatever) posting of interesting links to <a
+href='http://del.icio.us/'>Delicious</a>, and <a
+href='http://www.mnot.net/drafts/draft-nottingham-atom-format-02.html'>Atom</a>
+support. It's actually relatively easy to do most of these as add-ons
+to the existing version of <a href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a>, but I'd like
+to finish the internal cleanup before adding them. The next version
+will have complete interface abstraction and an opaque engine class,
+allowing other people to come along and do things like write wacky
+backend support (e.g. save feed list to <a
+href='http://mysql.com/'>MySQL</a> or <a
+href='http://syndic8.com/'>Syndic8</a>), custom interfaces (native Win32
+or <a href='http:/gtk.org/'>GTK+</a> interface, anyone?), rewriting the
+<a href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a> engine in C. I'm also
+considering using <a
+href='http://www.chadfowler.com/ruby/rss/'>Ruby/RSS</a> for the next
+version of <a href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a>; the current <acronym
+title='Really Simple Summary'>RSS</acronym> parsing in <a
+href='http://raggle.org/'>Raggle</a> is a bit more haphazard than I'd
+like, so deferring to another library saves me the trouble of writing
+yet another library.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+On the binding front, I've still got two other sets of <a
+href='http://ruby-lang.org/'>Ruby</a> bindings pending completion, <a
+href='http://cvs.pablotron.org/?m=tunepimp-ruby'>TunePimp-Ruby</a> and
+<a href='http://cvs.pablotron.org/?m=devil-ruby'>Devil-Ruby</a>
+(although I've been sitting on the latter for like a year now, so who
+knows when I'll get to it :D). Also, <a href='/software/ft2-ruby/'>FT2-Ruby</a> <em>badly</em> needs the rest of the <a href='http://freetype.org/'>FreeType2</a> <acronym title="Application Programmer's Interface">API</acronym> implemented.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+As for non-<a href='http://ruby-lang.org/'>Ruby</a> stuff, I finally
+added comments to <a
+href='http://paulduncan.org/'><code>paulduncan.org</code></a>, and I've
+got two of the three family-related pages I started all up and running
+(<a href='http://erinmduncan.com/'><code>erinmduncan.com</code></a> and
+<a href='http://richandrobynn.com/'><code>richandrobynn.com</code></a>
+are up, <a href='http://saraduncan.com/'><code>saraduncan.com</code></a> is waiting on a theme from <a href='http://lily.richlowe.net/'>Jon-Anne (lilyj)</a>).
