Hello,

The Freepascal has been important to my life, so it's very nice to contribute with some code.
I didn't know FPHTTPClient. But it helped me a lot since I got a native implementation for a component.
I have implemented a component to download and parse RSS. There is aclass to provide the RSS service and another to read news from a channel.

The result of this work is here:

https://github.com/silvioprog/easyrss

I liked the result of this work. There is no native units in Freepascal to manage RSS. If the team of Freepascal regards this code can be intersting and wants to add it to native units, for me, of course, it would be an honor to participate in this fantastic project.
Is the FPC team likes, I will exclude this project from Github since, in this case, it wouldn't make sense to stay there.
But whatever is the will, here I offer my work and I hope the friends like it.

Thank you,

Perhaps I should finally revive the idea of programming my own RSS reader (using WebKit for rendering). :D

Should I regard this as a sign that you'd approve of including this in FPC ? I don't use RSS myself, but I know many people like it, so why not include it: With so many things moving to web, it might be useful to have...

I would use it regardless of whether we include it or not just because it saves me work. :)

That does not really answer my question... ;-)

I don't mind including it, but I'm more a "compiler hacking" than "including package" guy ;)

Hello guys,

I have forwarded this message to FPC-Pascal since it's possible that more people is interested in this unit. :)

Thank you!
