What does it say about our current national psyche when a film featuring two homophobic men wrestling naked in a hotel ballroom makes us laugh until snot drips from our […]

Basically, it’s a simple ATOM aggregator for Plone… with a twist: it turns the aggregated items into first-class Plone content objects. This is big.
