The PLIP also mentions a better RSS portlet. I won't be able to do

Feedmixer is a better RSS portlet, and should cover most usecases. It
aggregates multiple feeds to one (and includes a "more…" listing.) ,
but you can easily cover the simple usecase of a single feed as well.
This is what I send to Martin earlier:
Feedmixer is not a 'better' portlet (even if its implementation
actually is better). Feedmixer serves a different purpose: a portlet
and page that shows data aggregated from multiple feeds. That is
quite different than what the standard RSS portlet does: that makes
it extremely easy to add a portlet for a single feed. The use cases
differ enough to warrant
separate portlets.
The main problem people have with the current RSS portlet is that it
does not work for anonymous users, or it only works as long as there
are authenticated users active as well. I fixed that in svn a while
ago but that hasn't made it into a release yet.
based on that we'll keep feedmixer as a separate product.
