Re: [PyCS-devel] Idea for someone with some spare time

Hi!

Yep, me :-)

Ok, I have hacked up some really crude support. I copied all the comments
stuff, renamed it to trackbacks stuff and changed some form fields and
some formattings. Now you can post trackback pings to the PyCS and you
blog software can use the same mechanisms it uses for comments, to show
trackbacks (just substitute trackback.py for comments.py in the URLs - and
the link parameter is gone, you don't need it any more). Trackbacks are
stored in their own table, you can create RSS feeds for them and you can
show the number of trackbacks in your blog using Javascript.

This is only rudimentary tested, I just hacked it together. But maybe
someone else can have a look and give it a try. I will create a
description how to change your template and stuff to support it with PyDS.

bye, Georg
