I never heard anything back on my last email above.  Was the Python
unit test for this plugin acceptable?   Did a bzr pull give any
results this time?

In the meantime I have made some substantial changes to the plugin.
First, I renamed it, because it is no longer CC specific.  Before, it
used api.creativecommons.org to get the proper license name, now it
find the license name embedded as RDFa in the document at the other
end of the license URL.  The main advantage is that the plugin is no
longer CC specific.  Any license URL that has a Dublin Core "title"
attribute embedded in the document with RDFa will get picked up.  This
text can, of course, be anything and in any language.

I have committed these changes to the Bazaar checkout that I specified
above, and here again:

http://a5.creativecommons.org/~nkinkade/venus/

One way or the other, please let me know if this satisfactory, as we'd
love to see these changes and plugin made available to others via the
official Planet Venus code/site.

Thanks,

Nathan
