Rupert,

It sounds like there is some interest in this among the community, and I know we have had some clients express interest in it here and there.

Is the work you have done something you could contribute back to the project? Even if it is fairly rough and low-level we could certainly put it in as it would be a good starting point.

Hi,

Over the last few weeks I've been doing some work on a site that will be
gathering RSS feeds from other sites and displaying the headlines
accordingly. I have used something called Rome which is a set of RSS/Atom
tools and is apparently Apache licensed https://rome.dev.java.net/.
Integration with OFBiz was easy - but my work on this really is in a proof of concept phase. I have taken RSS feeds from other sites and displayed them
on an OFBiz site - that's about it.
My plan is to extend the Content Manager to manage these feeds so it is easy to choose and change which feeds are being displayed. Ultimately - I would also like to publish RSS feeds from the CMS so people can be kept up to date
with Forum/Blog posts, news etc.
Has anyone already thought about this or started work on this already? Is the Rome license correct (it seems by far the most comprehensive set of
tools) or should I be looking for something else?
If this seems like a useful feature for the project I'll put this in Jira.

Kind Regards,

Rupert Howell
