RSS.NET: An open-source .NET class library for RSS feeds

RSS.NET: An open-source .NET class library for RSS feeds

"What is RSS.NET?

Who can use RSS.NET?
Commercial, internal, open-source and all other developers can use RSS.NET ..."


Cool...

This is a C# project for reading and writing RSS feeds. It seems to be a professionally developed project, with online help, code samples (in C# and VB.Net) and source is available.

The only issue I see is that the code is a little old. In the Nightly source tarbar, the newest file date is 5/20/2004. The Project's SourceForge site does have some recent activity, so it's not totally dead. Also given the source is available it will never be totally dead will it?

Downloaded.

I've played with it a bit and it worked well. I'm thinking about writing a lightweight RSS Aggregator that runs on SQLLite, and RSS.NET seems like a good jumpstart on the RSS handling.
