It would be ultimately cool if things like voting results and the elrinka news thread were aggregated into a news frontpage.

This will probably be implemented by using an RSS aggregation/filtering/display mechanism.

Work in progress can be viewed at https://www.fwurg.net/news.

Todo

The following are possible improvements:

  • Two-column IC/OOC layout when in overview mode
  • Better detection of feed subject:
    • Removal of 'Re: '
    • Detection of '[ ' location name ' ]'
    • Detection of '<Vote>'
  • Icons of location, IC/OOC
  • Filtering based on hashtags in title
    • But allow some forum entries to be allowed wholesale? (UCN thread and such)
  • What does an edit of the ic: namespace mean in an IC/OOC news context?
  • Show only summaries (of up to 250 characters), and link to the actual item
  • Display of faction icons next to senators
    • Or display of factions icons for any mentioned faction?
