Thanks, looks very good, except it doesn't handle Atom.

Another question is how liberal the parser is. The world is jam-packed full
of malformed feeds. It might be interesting to see how hard it would be to
port Mark's ultra-liberal feed parser to Ruby, which does support Atom (and
RSS and CDF).

Or RSS 0.9, or RSS 2.0 with extended Dublin Core, or RSS 2.0 with
extensions unless you turn off validation.

I was working on documenting RSS (the library) recently, and in my view
it's really not very good for parsing. It also seems rather un-Ruby-like
in not providing a single API for all kinds of feed.
