-Here's a scary idea.. A plugin that can aggregate feeds from other
-locations. Presumably there would need to be a cron job to build the wiki
-periodically, and each time it's built any new items would be turned into
-pages etc. There might also need to be a way to expire old items, unless
-you wanted to keep them forever.
-
-This would allow ikiwiki to work as a kind of a planet, or at least a
-poor-man's news aggregator.
-
-* XML::Feed has a very nice interface, may require valid feeds though.
-* How to store GUIDs? Maybe as meta tags on pages, although that would need
-  caching of such metadata somewhere.
-* How to configure which feeds to pull, how often, and where to put the
-  pulled entries? One way would be command line/config file, but I think
-  better would be to use preprocessor directives in a wiki page, probably
-  the same page that inlines all the pages together.
-* Where to store when a feed was last pulled?
-
-So I need:
-
-* A way to store info from the preprocessor directives about what pages
-  to pull and expiry.
-* A way to store info on last pull time, guids, etc.
-* Switch for a mode that a) pulls b) expires old c) rebuilds wiki (for cron)
+* Still need to support feed expiry.
