Task:RSS feed reader

The official RSS Feed Reader and related home applet are being ported to Fremantle. Even if it's 100% open source, the development is nowadays closed and the input from the community is very small. Unless we all do something about it.

Interested in having an excellent feed reader in Maemo? Get involved!

How to get there

There are different ways to get there:

• Everybody gets involved in the development of the official RSS Feed Reader

  • Feed Circuit
  • How crazy would be to extend Mauku as a RSS feed reader with a very smart home applet? - or with any microblog app.
  • And how crazy would it be to mix it with a podcast app.
  • And how crazy would it be to mix feed reader, microblog reader and podcast app?
• Ports from GNOME/KDE or anywhere native. Not that Maemo's RSS Feed Reader derives from Liferea. Candidates:
  • Your candidates here.
• Firefox extensions

Competition

What great products are other (mobile) platforms offering? Name, link and remarkable features that make the app/service so good.

Note also the potential discussion about local app versus web service (and a way in between).
