[Haskell] ANN: lambdaFeed 0.2.0 "Lambdas for all!"

This is to announce a new Haskell application: lambdaFeed is an RSS 2.0
feed generator.  It reads news items - in a non-XML, human-friendly
format - distributed over multiple channels and renders them into the
RSS 2.0 XML format understood by most news aggregators as well as into
HTML for inclusion into web pages.

This is a very early version of the tool; hence, many desirable features
are missing.  However, the internal representation of RSS 2.0 feeds is
already rather feature-full, including enclosure, as needed for podcats.
A major shortcoming right now is that the generated HTML is quite
simple, and in particular, a nice style-sheet is missing.

Source is available in darcs.  Check it out at

PS: The code is very hackable.  Plain H98 throughout.
