Hacker News Reader

I had a look at the code on GitHub and could only find code that seems to start and stop threads. Is there more coming?

I was scratching my head looking around the code until I saw this huge text in the README:

STATUS: incomplete, prototype, work in progress, non-functional, etc, etc

The rest of the README is aspirational. It's a little confusing.

Author here: Yes, the README is aspirational, its a checklist for myself. I put the STATUS line there for everyone else, but it appears no one actually reads it. (Heck, not one other person on HN actually tried it out, because it sure as heck doesn't work yet).

I hadn't put any publicity out about the code yet, I had just pushed it up to github a few days ago because I wanted to move the code around to some other machines, I didn't expect anyone to pick it up.
