I think the idea was, that theres a substantial backlog, and that at the current rate, 1 per day keep up with the number of valid submissions. Yes, theres enough to do this with. No, I dont think that the 10 random articles test should be considered a bellweather for such a narrow cat. You pessimist, you. ;)
Anyway I dont really do daily features handling, but it looks like its gonna happen BYKI. 2 a day... 3 a day... maybe 4 a day.. who knows.
All I know is that if something sucky gets on the front page I'll quickly get motivated (a little miffed 2) and start editing the hell out of it.

I hate to be the downer on this, but I'm a little bit surprised that no one has asked the obvious question - what is the point of this? We're currently producing about ten featured articles a week. That's enough to keep up the current system and give Raul a little bit of choice in order to keep an interesting mix of main page articles. If we had two or three featured articles on the main page a day (which I don't see as very necessary anyway), we'd have to substantially increase our output of featured articles, or else we'd be having to repeat already-featured articles in a matter of months.
