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
