Hi list, 

Working on the web interface of GeoNetwork (metadata catalog for geospatial
information), we added some features to OpenLayers GeoRSS layers. 

Changes are : 
- added item agregation (if more than one item is located on the same place,
the popup is filled with description of all items). The icon size increase
according to the number of items
- added support for georss:box element. A point is created on the UL corner
of that item. A boxe is added to a boxes layer. You have one layer with
markers and one layer with boxes.
- added georss extent property (use to zoom to layer)
- added popup width and height property.
- added trigger event loadend

A demo inside GeoNetwork is available here :
http://dev.sandre.eaufrance.fr/gnopenlayers/ (you could search for nitrate
or bassin for example)

I will be pleased to send that to one of the committers if you think that
could be added to openlayers (I'm new to openlayers and I'm not really aware
of who is working on what !). If you think that there's some stuff to adapt,
feel free to comment.

Thanks to Nicolas for his input on items agregation. 

Cheers. Francois
