Syndication feed generation library -- used for generating RSS, etc.
Sample usage:
>>> from django.utils import feedgenerator
>>> feed = feedgenerator.Rss201rev2Feed(
... title="Poynter E-Media Tidbits",
... link="http://www.poynter.org/column.asp?id=31",

>>> feed.add_item(
... title="Hello",
... link="http://www.holovaty.com/test/",
... description="Testing."
... )
>>> with open('test.rss', 'w') as fp:
... feed.write(fp, 'utf-8')
