-# I suggest commenting out this line because it will screw up this script (I think its a bug in the parser)

 # P.S. The "other" cvs2rss.pl isn't really cvs2rss, it is more like cvs2xml, boo!
 # P.P.S. Parts of this are stolen from commit2rss.rb and the XML::RSS examples.

 # Version 1.0 - 08.24.04 RSS Compliant, no cvs diff capability yet..
