Feasibility of including straw?

[Michel Alexandre Salim]

This is a long shot, what with the beta process already ongoing, but
what is the likelihood that we could get Straw
(http://www.nongnu.org/straw) included, say in the next beta?

It is quite stable - RH9's version of pygtk2 had to be recompiled with
threading enabled but that is default since 1.99.16 - it does need adns,
adns-python and bsddb3 installed though (despite the name bsddb3 version
4.x compiles fine against db4)

I have them all packaged and roughly RedHat-ified sitting on my hard
drive if anyone is interested. The other alternative is to use
GtkSharpRSS (http://gtksharprss.sourceforge.net/images/GtkSharpRSS.png)
- which even has Dashboard (http://nat.org/dashboard) support, so it
will be in really good shape this time next year or so. GtkSharpRSS
requires Mono, of course, but it will be nice to have, say on the
Technology Preview directory RH used to have.

Thoughts?

Michel
