10:33 PM EST 		I am happy with the RSS feed (address http://lxer.com/module/newswire/headlines.rss) but not with the way the articles appear (in evo 1.4). They appear directly and I would rather see that the LXer posting referring to it appeared first. Then I have direct access to the comments too.

So... I like it the way it is. If we go to the intervening page, images of linuxtoday.com (post Dave) will start going through my mind.

Much better to just give the direct link to the reader.

This is open source, you have permission to humor one user ;-)

Could even be a preferences thing.

I put this up for you: http://lxer.com/module/newswire/headlines_to_lxer.rss

Is that what you wanted?
