There're no docs and few comments, but as far as I can tell from the code this doesn't seem to be related to what I was asking about. Apropos of not much, if I were going to do something like this I'd write it in Perl (or Python or Ruby or whatever) rather than C, at least until/unless they were proven too inefficient... good luck with your project though!

This is an server program that takes an RSS feed as input and converts the output to HTML. I was going to use it for news updates on a webpage, but that project fell through, so this code has been languishing on my hard drive for a while now. Lately I've been think about finishing it just so that the work I put into it doesn't go to waste. I was hoping to push it off on someone else. :-)

I re-read your post, and you're right, this isn't what you're looking for.What about a simple RSS server?
That almost never works... If a project bores you, chances are it will also bore someone who has even less loyalty to the code. Projects with similar histories are littered across SourceForge... If you shepherd your project long enough to attract some loyal users, however, you might manage to do it. it takes some dilligence though!What about a simple RSS server?
