Drupal RSS Feed, SLFeed, Formally Released
The Drupal moduleI pre-released is now in formal release with no changes other than having an official project page on Drupal: SLFeed Module.
The instructions are straightforward, but to save some clicking here is what I originally wrote:
One of the problems with creating an inworld RSS feed reader for the Drupal content management system has been that Drupal does things right with the headers - and because of Second Life simulator overhead concerns, the headers are not dealt with properly by Linden Scripting Language calls.
This poses a bit of a problem, but I hacked around it some time ago and have had the module in testing for months. It is time to make it public; it is likely to be an official Drupal module within the next few weeks.
The attached Zip file contains a Drupal 5.x module which simply generates delimited fields. These fields are then parsed by an inworld feed reader. For those wondering on the magic of the Your2ndPlace.com RSS Feed Reader, the magic is removed: Here's the Example Drupal RSS Feed Reader to be used in conjunction with the files below. I'd been awaiting the release of some other modules for Drupal, but decided to be a bit more proactive - I have other modules in testing as well.
The instructions are relatively simple:
(1) Uncompress the attached file and install in your Drupal modules folder.
(2) Enable the SLFeeds module. There are no settings.
(3) Inworld, edit the code of the main script in the RSS feed reader to reflect your sites URLs.
(4) Change the texture to your own texture that represents your feed.The Example Drupal RSS feed is 7 prims, and uses XY Text as well as communication between linked objects. It also uses floating text.
This module will only work with a minimum of 10 posts on a site, so new Drupal sites should not use this unless they have 10 nodes in their RSS feed already.
Updates in documentation on the Drupal site will include some simple LSL sample code and any other things necessary. More stuff coming for Drupal. :-)

no module on drupal project page?
Hello,
I see you say you released the pre-release, but there's no module on the drupal project page? I do know I can downloadi t from here, but there doesn't seem to be even a link to the code on your drupal project page, which may lead to people not using this module...
In short: would it be possible to make the module available on the drupal project page?
thanks!
Its there

Apparently the module is in CVS, my bad for not looking good enough, sorry!
