Did you try the feeder plugin before doing this work? That plugin is a very simple rss input plugin. Would you like to contribute your ehancements to that plugin? Don't worry if you don't have the time to merge your work with the plugin code itself, simply open an issue and attach the feeds.xsl, details of any relevant skinconf.xml extensions and the relevant xmap snippets. That way we know the information is there and when someone has a strong enough itch they can scratch it using your code as a base. Ross
