Open Source Python RSS Feed Readers for Mac

LeechCraft is a cross-platform modular "internet-client" application. It has plugins that allow one to browse the web, chat via instant messaging (like Jabber or IRC), read RSS/Atom feeds, download files via BitTorrent, Direct Connect and other protocols, play media files and much more.

This project intends to provide a free (as in freedom) alternative to web news readers and bookmarking apps. It is built around the following analogies: 1. You contemplate the river of news flowing down from your selection of sources. 2. You can then use a sieve to filter out and collect the most interesting links. A demo is at http://wateronmars-demo.herokuapp.com For the curious developers the aim is also to provide the base mechanics for news and bookmarks manipulations. For instance, there is now a "good enough" database scheme, a RESTful API and a "not too ridiculous" UX. Everything is set up to start experimenting new features around the admitedly old-fashioned theme of news feeds and bookmarks !
