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.

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.
