This module is the result of combining code and lessons learned from news functions for a couple of different of sites which we have built at Redema.

It is supposed to be easy to integrate on new sites, easy to customize and should perform well with big news archives.

Be aware that the module is far from complete and that backward incompatible changes might be introduced in the future.
