6304	Syndication feed framework should allow for parsing of URLs in the URLconf	Adrian Holovaty	nobody	"Currently, the syndication feed framework requires the developer to parse URLs manually in {{{Feed.get_object()}}}, which violates the DRY principle and is confusing because it leads to URL parsing being in more than one place (i.e., in a place other than the URLconf). I am proposing a new view in {{{django.contrib.syndication.views}}}, called {{{single_feed()}}}, which allows for parsing the URL in the URLconf instead of {{{Feed.get_object()}}}.

The problem with this patch, which I realized only after implementing it, is that it couples {{{Feed}}} to either {{{single_feed()}}} or {{{multiple_feeds()}}}. We could change {{{Feed.get_object()}}} to *always* take a list of URL parameters, but that would be a backwards-incompatibility. I'm posting my patch here for discussion."		closed	contrib.syndication	dev		fixed		floguy@…	Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
