Sounds great!
What would be an additional interesting feature would be to make the feeds 
accessible from outside owncloud as well. Via a web service, similar to google 
reader so users would be able to keep on reading using an app on their phones 
on the go and still news are getting marked as read. Would be nice to have a 
personalized RSS feed in the cloud without showing google what topics I am 
interested in.

Subject: [Owncloud] [ITC] Feedr - social feed reader/manager for ownclowd


Hi!

My coworker (Andrej Čremožnik aka Skye) and I (Rok Andrée aka Putr)
are participating at a hackathon sponsored by our employer - D.Labs
d.o.o ( http://dlabs.si ).

We've decided to implement a project we had been thinking about for a
while as an owncloud app and to opensource the result. The hackathon
has already started and will continue for the next 18 hours. We are
expected(and expect) to deliver a MVP (minimal viable product).

Project description:

A social, distributed feed manager and reader. Some of its features
are:
(MVP - minimal viable product, PF - planned feature)
- Add a feed, tag it, name it (MVP)
- Add feed to your in-app reader (MVP)
- Filter feed (PF)
- package feeds into logical units (MVP) and filter them (PF)
- Share compiled feeds configuration with other users (you publish
json url that other owncloud users, same instance or different, can
input into their owncloud app and receive your feed/bundle) (MVP)
- Loads of distributed social features (PF)

The idea is that you can share your rss setup with other. An example
user story would be:
"I'm a php developer and want to learn about drupal so i lookup an
important person or organisation in the field and import a pre-made
package of important, need to know sources".

PS: The specification is still changing. We'll also be hanging in the
IRC channel.


Regards,
Rok Andrée
