First I like to explain why to contribute this module.
At the moment there is no fast distribution of the rss feeds. All the feeds published by drupal pings the crawlers via ping-o-matic (ping.module) or another subscribers (multiping.module).
One of the limitation is that it could take a while when the subscriber pulls you're RSS feed.
Another limitations is that it is difficult to get updates from services quickly without the crawlers overloading your site servers with update checks.
There are different solutions to distribute your rss feeds faster without it polling problem:
* Simple Update Protocol, that was proposed by Paul Buchheit from Friendfeed. (see http://code.google.com/p/simpleupdateprotocol/)
* PubSub Protocol, that was proposed by Brad Fitzpatrick and Brett Slatkin from Google. (see http://code.google.com/p/pubsubhubbub/)
* rsscloud(see http://rsscloud.org/)
In the future it will be common to use these publish methods. Wordpress has a plugin that support pubsubhubbub. I do not think we would lose by Wordpress.
There is also much demand by the community:
* http://code.google.com/p/pubsubhubbub/wiki/PublisherClients
* http://drupal.org/node/551980
So now i like to approach these features via my fastwebfeed.module.
It extends the default rss.xml for SUP, pubsub and rsscloud.
I also asked for Aron Novak for a collaboration with the feedAPI.
But I think it's usefull to have standalone module for all the users how don't use the feedAPI module.
thx,
Jo Bollen

avpadernoIf you re-apply for a CVS account, you still need to upload the code.

avpadernoThere have not been replies from the OP, who has not uploaded the code for the review. I am marking this report as .

avpadernoRemember to change the status, when uploading new code; differently, who reviews the code will not know there is code to review (it's not just me to review code).

g.i.joe commentedThe first Release Candidate for Drupal 6 is a fact. (fastwebfeed.module-6.x-1.0-RC1)
It supports pubsubhubbub and sup and it inserts this to the drupal RSS feeds.

Comment #15
avpadernoThe function is outputting so much HTML without use themes function. The string is not translated.
It is enough to write
if ($plugged_modules) {; PHP is not a strong-typed language.The placeholder is not translated; therefore, the call to
t()is not used to translate anything.The first line would cause the error , if executed.
I am missing the purpose of all that code.
A validation function always get the parameters
$form, and$form_state; there isn't the need to check if they are passed.Also,
&$form_state = NULLis not a valid syntax for a function parameter, in PHP 4. Drupal 6 is still compatible with PHP 4.The code is wrong. Did you see any Drupal core module doing that just to read the values passed through the form?
