[Radiant] rss_behavior plugin

[BJ Clark]

Bryan, Sweet catch. Really nice man. Thanks.

I've got the rss_behavior working great now.
I did have to hack it a bit, so I'm posting here for posterity.
I'm also going to send this to the author.
If your using a "mephisto" blog for your RSS (I think this is a
mephisto thing, not a feedburner thing, but it could be feedburner
too) you don't have a <date> tag in your xml feed. You have published
and updated. So you need to add those two tags to the plugin:
    tag "feed:published" do |tag|
      tag.locals.item.published
    end
    tag "feed:updated" do |tag|
      tag.locals.item.updated
    end

That hung me up for a while, but I've got most everything kosher.

The only problem I"m still having is I need to reformat the date (on
the radiant side) and I'm not sure how to do this.
I need to reformat "Saturday, December 16, 2006" to "Dec. 16".
Anyone know how to do this (is it possible to do it in radius)?
Thanks,
BJ
