No, I'm not complaining. Just pointing out that we're all newbies and still
experimenting with the uses of the formats. Scripting News is great weblog,
and it's one of the first that I want to implement into my new aggregator,
but it's hard because it does things differently than everyone else and the
way you do things is still changing.

Please, let's discuss where we want these formats to go. There's a lot of
exciting possibilities out there.
