Re: NGA now using Bricolage

Hah!

Should not have asked.  Should have just said,
"cool", and added it to
the bric list of sites.  Last I checked there is nothing
wrong with
linking to any web site and saying "this site runs
xyz".  apparently the
bric community is simply more polite 

Those calendars are really cool by the way.  If you want our
kludged up
RSS generation code, (grabs stories of a specific type from
a category
and makes an RSS 2.0 feed), just let me know.

Thanks!  Nice to hear that.

I'd love to get your RSS code.  The next phase of our Bric
rollout is
most likely going to be to generate an RSS feed for a
regional calendar
hosted by somebody else -- I'm trying to get them to just
consume a feed
that we publish along with our calendar of events.

And likewise, if you'd like any of my hacks, just let me
know.  It's
going to be a bear to integrate some of them into Bricolage,
but
hopefully I'll get around to it this year, even if it has to
be at night
