cblgh started the finish it jam, and though I'm not normally one to be productive at jams (got too much going on anyway), this theme was the perfect excuse to de-guilt me about the huge amount of half finished things I need to finish. I decided to fix my RSS feed, because I'm the biggest hypocrite in the world, and it turned out to be super easy! So you can now access my feed for realsies and sub to me my random note updates if you wanted to. Strange how because of the fact that I get all my updates through RSS, and my own website didn't have an RSS feed, so I didn't read my own updates. I often had little idea what I was actually publishing because the system is entirely automated. Funny how that works, hey? I'll probably add a lil RSS reader to Dhyan so I'm on top of that, but I've also subbed to myself for the time being.

Given that there's still 5 days of the jam, I figured I might as well keep knocking things down. I'm parsing my pages slightly better, but the real problem I want to tackle is the standardization of my notes. Basant does a lot more than generating just HTML. It's also parsing the pages, generating the indexes, and all their lists. Lots of this should be moved to Poonam, so I have text files, and can explore my own wiki the way I can browse my website.

I suppose that's what I'll work on next.
