Mikel Maron:

There are many unsolved and half-solved problems in aggregation software. And at least there's no one place to find the consensus, or pros and cons on each issue. Examples..

: auto-discovery formats
: methods for publishing blogrolls and subscription lists, and interchanging them among aggregation tools
: aggregation subscription methods
: methods of passing "read articles" among multiple aggregators
: rpc api's for aggregators
: update frequency, and methods of update notification
: authentication
: standards for handling weblog comment aggregation

and many many more.
