I've found JIRA 60 which says "Shindig does not properly support the
FEED content type as defined by the gadgets spec for
gadgets.io.MakeRequest" and it is currently unassigned.

I'm coming across a number of gadgets that are trying to use this
feature - it's certainly a lot easier than parsing an XML feed; in
gmodules there is server-side code to break up the actual RSS fields
into a JSON structure.

Anyway, it occurred to me that this code must already exist somewhere
within Google... Would it be possible to at least commit (or post
elsewhere) the basic code to do that, even if it is not yet fully
integrated into Shindig?

I can't promise to be able to take the steps required to integrate it
with Shindig, but some other general member of the public (or me) might
be able to help from there, if the 'offical' coders aren't able to
address it. Certainly, it does not make sense to start from scratch,
assuming Google are still able to be generous with their existing code.

Thanks,

Dan
