I mean that if I want to publish news feeds ,blog updates like bloglines and techmeme . I and my users should have possibility to add RSS entries and the feeds should be published .
For now I am using feedwordpress .But here it is grabbing the blog authors emails and creating the accounts on my site for them .For example If I add readandwriteweb’s feed .Every time when the authors puclish a post on that site . That plugin is creating accounts for them.And this plugin allows only blog admin to add RSS entries .I wanted to allow the registered users to add RSS entries .
Does anybody implemented such aggregation functionality or created such aggregator using wordpress ? Could any one help me
Thanks !

you can change the settings in feedwordpress and have only one user for all syndicated post.
that should solve your problem, no ?
Pro Theme Design’s Accumulo theme for WordPress gives you the functionality to add RSS widgets to aggregate content from feeds, inspired by Alltop & WPTopics. A different layout organized by title, but you can see more on a page.
Feedwwordpress is probably the best tool for the job. Unfortunately it isn’t very friendly for modifying. The author’s site is a bit confusing to navigate and will confound most basic wordpress users. The source code is long, convoluted, occasionally commented and sometimes a little funny. (See feedwordpress/feedwordpress-walker-category-checklist.class.php for a chuckle.)
But it works, and should work for WordPress 2.6-3.1. It even supports rss feeds being put into custom post types (though you’ll have to work though a little trial and error to get a custom field into your post type.)
It’s a beast to write a modifying plugin for. Though I’d done one last year, I’ve spend the last day going through the source code because I was needing to write another fwp modifying plugin. I’m finally giving up and working around the problem in a different way.
As to your concern about FWP adding authors — you know there’s a setting for that, and you can set it on a per-feed basis. You can map authors to existing users rather easily.
