RSS Portlet is a simple portlet application for displaying RSS feeds. I wrote this portlet several years ago for the SJS Portal Server product. We recently moved the code for RSS Portlet to the Portlet Open Source Repository (POR) project on java.net. A fully supported version of the portlet is bundled with SJS Portal Server.
RSS Portlet just wraps a simple UI on top of the ROME feed processing engine. The real work happens there. Being based on ROME, RSS Portlet can consume much more than RSS feeds (the name is a misnomer). It can consume any feed format that ROME understands. As of ROME 0.8 (which is what RSS Portlet currently bundles), that is RSS 0.90, RSS 0.91 Netscape, RSS 0.91 Userland, RSS 0.92, RSS 0.93, RSS 0.94, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, Atom 0.3, and Atom 1.0.
We recently got our first code submission for ehancements to RSS Portlet. It's great too see folks interested! I really look forward to seeing this portlet evolve into a fully functional portlet-based feed reader.
