[wp-hackers] Re: Getting comment feed for articles of specific author

[Tim Schoffelman]

Why not create an author template (you may be able to do a category  
template) and in your loop pull the comments from that author & then  
grab the feed from either the author or category template - not sure  
if that's been done before, but I'm pretty sure I could arm wrestle  
the loop enough to do this very thing.

Any thoughts?
