The weekend thus far

Took a trip down to the farmer's market on my bike yesterday. It was thoroughly enjoyable and I've decided to try and do it every saturday morning. I'll have to bring a larger backpack though - it began to get a little bit tough to fit things in after visiting the fourth stall. I'll also have to figure out how to move homemade baked goods around. The pies and breads looked wonderful, but they don't really lend themselves to being transported on my back like say, potatoes do.
I've been mucking around with the announcement templates a little bit. The fact that the these templates are interpreted exactly the same way as the interface templates are kind of threw me off - I have a habit of including URLs inside of angle brackets when they are to be sent via email. In HTML, this is a no-no because angle brackets are reserved characters used in the HTML tags themselves. Hopefully a few fixes that I threw into the announcement template will fix the problem.
Tom and Joe are both whining now about me not including the entire body of the article in my email announcements. Wait until I tell them that the capability to do this in the RSS feed needs to be made configurable for PV6 :) I'll wait until I've heard from a few more people before I change this. I like the idea of making email readers visit the website to get the content - oddly, I don't feel that force RSS readers to the same is appropriate (just that we should support the function).
Some new readers and blogware'ers coming on board this week as the trials expand a little bit. I'll make sure to pass on pointers as they become available.
