Pish....

Sounded like a good idea but just doesn't seem to hold up...  With all 
the news in one place it's hard to keep track of what is going on in/on 
what distro, not to mention there are *some* distros (Ubuntu) which 
don't want to seem to allow republishing of planet content.  They have 
legal disclaimers on the content and do not provide any visible rss 
feeds.  Bastards.... :/
