NewsCenter is currently broken with the latest pyxml because of the switch to FourThought's 4DOM. I'm working on a complete rewrite at the moment which will switch all the dom interfaces over to sax2 (bringing massive speed improvements). I expect that the rewrite will be done by early December.

NewsCenter is a Zope/XML application that aims to be a resouce for Zope sites to allow their users access to the latest headlines from around the world on many different topics. It would like to bring order to this mass of information by making it searchable and displayed in a format that is easy to navigate and also allow users to have email syndication of channels that they are interested in (email syndication support through hooks). NewsCenter's news acquisition is based on the import of aggregate channel listings in a variety of xml formats. NewsCenter was designed for site managers to individually publish channels contained within a channel list. Furthermore because of performance considerations when importing a large number of channels or a large channel list it has options for the xml files to be loaded from the file system as opposed to the default implementation which obtains them directly from the web.
