Leslie Michael Orchard has posted some details about his latest RSS aggregator: dbagg3. Written in Python, dbagg3 speaks Atom on the client end, storing the feed entries in a relational db. Atom API provides access these entries. At the tail end of this train is an XSLT processor service. Very nice!

These are the sorts of tricks I was looking forward to when I started thinking about things like a universal blog transfer format and rose-colored glasses. XSLT used like this could just as easily produce a blog or RSS 2.0 content. Source: 0xDECAFBAD
