budda's feedparser has the cleanest code and looks like a good path forward. However, I would like to see the "feed enabling" approach that David Ayre took under our direction with the "feed_node" module -- see https://svn.bryght.com/dev/browser/feed_node
The site of the above links is down, from my end, anyway. ("No site by that name can be found.") is the result of clicking either link.
The other big thing is the ability to take different actions based on the namespace. For example, examining the feed, seeing it has GeoRSS extensions, and location-enabling nodes that are based on it.
This sounds good. I wonder, however, whether these kinds of features should not be handed off to one of the "trigger-based" modules, like Actions or Workflow. Core surely needs a robust "triggering API", whatever that turns out to be, down the road. -- inkfree
