  Description     : Collection of command-line tools for processing RSS and
Atom feeds

sfeed is a collection of command-line tools for converting RSS and Atom
feeds to and from other formats and for fetching, merging, filtering and
sorting feed items.

I use sfeed for processing RSS and Atom feeds in scripts (videos of my
sfeed-powered Telex-style ticker tape available upon request!) The
conversion to email (mbox) format to read in an email client can be very
useful, as email clients have features that are not typically found in
feedreaders, such as being able to forward items on to others.

sfeed has already been packaged for a number of other distributions
(notably Alpine Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD).

I'd like to maintain this package - it's pretty small, so I think I
would be able to maintain it alone. However, I am not a Debian
Maintainer, so I'll be requesting sponsorship in due course!
