-This is a plugin to automatically load notices in the browser no
-matter who creates them -- the kind of thing we see with
-search.twitter.com, rejaw.com, or FriendFeed's "real time" news.
-
-NOTE: this is an insecure version; don't roll it out on a production
-server.
-
-It requires a cometd server. I've only had the cometd-java server work
-correctly; something's wiggy with the Twisted-based server.
-
-After you have a cometd server installed, just add this code to your
-config.php:
-
-    require_once(INSTALLDIR.'/plugins/Comet/CometPlugin.php');
-    $cp = new CometPlugin('http://example.com:8080/cometd/');
-
-Change 'example.com:8080' to the name and port of the server you
-installed cometd on.
-
-TODO:
-
-* Needs to be tested with Ajax submission. Probably messes everything
-  up.
-* Add more timelines: personal inbox and tags would be great.
-* Add security. In particular, only let the PHP code publish notices
-  to the cometd server. Currently, it doesn't try to authenticate.
