  Description     : Post to the Pump.io social network automatically from (RSS) feeds

Spigot takes syndicated content feeds and posts them to pump.io accounts 
at a limited rate. This way you can syndicate content to a pump.io account 
without worrying about flooding the account when updates to the feed are frequent.



----------------



It's a useful tool for entities (and people, but mostly entities like Debian),
to automatically post to the free/libre/decentralized Pump.io social network.

It can be used, for instance, by the Debian Publicity team (it's already being
used, but from someone's PC, built from source). If it were packaged, this could
be integrated into the usual processes that require software to be packaged in 
Debian first.
