 * I would love to be able to pull from the default keys from FeedWordPress’s get_feed_meta()
   template tag. I noticed mention of `link/name`, but I’d particularly like to 
   know what the keys are for the Short Description and Homepage values on the Feeds
   setup page. There’s some information here, but
    [http://feedwordpress.radgeek.com/wiki/getfeedmeta](http://feedwordpress.radgeek.com/wiki/getfeedmeta)
 * I would assume these show up in phpmyadmin, but I’m apparently not savvy enough
   to figure it out!
 * Thanks,

 * I got this reply by email from the author today, but I’m misunderstanding what
   it would take for me to echo the “Short Description” and “Homepage” values. Currently,
   only `echo get_feed_meta('link/name')` will do anything.
