Sure.  Get them at http://mg.pov.lt/planet-mg/svn/.  The templates make
use of a new variable 'id_hash', which you can get by applying this
patch:

--- orig/planet/__init__.py
+++ mod/planet/__init__.py

I've also applied a patch to FeedParser to close all open tags in an entry.
The patch used to be available at
http://lists.planetplanet.org/pipermail/devel/2005-January/000365.html
but now that URL gives me a 404 Not Found error.

HTH,
