Each Drupal site [1] exports a RSS-alike channel feed like the one you 
can see at [2] or [3].  Drupal sites can also import these so it would
be Real Cool if you (newsisfree.com etc) could support this format ...

 [1] http://www.drupal.org/ and http://www.drop.org/
 [2] http://www.drop.org/module.php?mod=import&op=fd
 [3] http://www.voidstar.com/module.php?mod=import&op=fd

We took OCS into consideration as well but we found it too complicated
for what we want to achieve.  This was discussed here [4].
