Hi Peter, I am very interested in replacing (or even fixing) Magpie. Atom 1.0 support would be wonderful. I have had my eye on XML feed parser ( http://pear.php.net/package/XML_Feed_Parser ) for a while. I didn't know about the existence SimplePie. At first glance it looks very promising. I think the best way for you to send in a patch would be to attach, to the svn tracker, the svn diff output of your version against a recent svn version. Best, Sameer (aka Parsing-officer??)
