Via Uche's "State of the Python-XML Art"icle I latched onto the following:

"Andrew Dalke announced PyRSS2Gen, an RSS 2.0 generator for Python. Dalke developed it to be both highly compliant and to support a broad range of RSS features. See the announcement for more details."

Nifty. Downloaded the code, read it. Thought to myself "Hey, I should wrap this up for Zope", similar to ZGoogle, then proceeded to spend the weekend doing family stuff. By the time the weekend was done I had earned a number of good Dad points but no weekend hacker points.  When sitting to continue this evening I'm dead tired. Reading the link-less tidbit regarding XML and Zope 2.6.1 didn't help the motivation much, either.

Felt like posting a "what I did on my summer weekend" post, but leaving you with this, seeing PyRSS2Gen has not made the Daily Python-URL. (If anyone's interesed in Abba tapes drop me a note. That, among a few other tidbits, satisfied my urge to bid on massive quantities of the unknown at an auction I attended down the street.)

Uche's article also noted a previous "companion and update to that book [Python & XML] in an earier article.", of which includes some significant points on Chapter 4 DOM usage.
