Proposal: Inbound Content Syndication

Problem

CMF does not support in-bound syndication.

What is In-bound Syndication?

In-bound syndication is the mechanism by which externally published files abd/or content are brought into a CMF instance. These are typically 'news' or 'headlines'syndicated via the orginating site or content provider. The actual possiblities of data brought into a CMF through in-bound syndication is large, for example, a distributor pushing content (pricing, specials, etc) to their VARs.

Proposed Solution

Integrate in-bound syndication into the CMF, supporting RSS 1.0 (RSS 1.0 Spec).

Possible Risks

  • DOS attacks

  • Could tie up database connections in Zope

  • Scheduling properly could pose problems requiring additional implementation procedures outside of Zope.

  • XML parsing

  • Backwards compatibility with RSS 0.9x

Deliverables

  • Added In-bound Syndication Interface(s) to SyndicationTool.

  • Configuration Skins for Admin/ZMI.

If you can read this text, it means you are not experiencing the Plone design at its best. Plone makes heavy use of CSS, which means it is accessible to any internet browser, but the design needs a standards-compliant browser to look like we intended it. Just so you know ;)
