I have thought about this and have come to the conclusion that there aren't really any viable options for implementing this. One solution would be to look for some suitable metadata in the feed entries/items (dc:relation seems like a good candidate). The downside of this solution is that it requires changes to all the software which produces RSS feeds, so it is not likely become widespread. Another option would be to use rel="tag" property of the "a" element. Nixtape, however would have to parse the content of each post for links which link to the site etc. The journal author probably would also sometimes rather link to the official site of the artist than the artist's page on libre.fm. There are some other issues with this approach as well. If anyone has better ideas, I'd like to hear about them. -- Eetu Huisman <[email protected]> http://ehuisman.com/music _______________________________________________ Libre-fm mailing list [email protected] http://lists.autonomo.us/mailman/listinfo/libre-fm
