For those of you who receive email notifications of new content, you probably haven't received email for a few days, and then today received an email with a lot of posts which do not appear on the front page of Kairosnews. That's because the notification module was picking up the incoming RSS feed items that are stored in the new developmental news aggregator.

I've now modified it. If I've fixed it correctly, it now only sends notification of nodes which have been promoted to the front page.

Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

Thanks to the revised import module under development at Drupal, Kairosnews now adds items in RSS feeds as nodes into the database. New features include:

• The ability to set expiration times on the nodes (otherwise, the database would quickly grow out of control if all items in RSS feeds were permanently added).
• An option to allow commenting on specific feed items.
• Categorization of feeds using the taxomony system.
• And most important, the option of having a specific feed promoted to the front p
  

I've implemented a members list for Kairosnews. Since member email addresses are available in the list, you must be logged in to access it.

Previously, because anonymous users do not have comment access (the add comment page could serve as a permalink), they would not have been able to get a permalink for any post on the home page which did not have a "read more." So I've modified the theme so that the post title is a link to a full version of the post.
