Hi, I was looking at the Pear documents for the XML_RSS package and noticed it was unmaintained and the invite to take over the project was hanging out there. I would like to offer to take over this package. I have done a couple small open source contributions in the past and would like to expand my contribution a bit at a time. This looks like a good, small step, and I have a few things that I can add into it. I have been developing in PHP since around ~2003 and have noticed my level of frustration diminishing as the object oriented support has matured over the years. I am currently the VP of product development for a startup company and wrote a custom application framework which is currently operating a PHP code base of approximately 200,000 lines of code (it is a large SaaS content management / communications application). The XML_RSS and XML_Parser PEAR packages are two among several "3rd Party" scripts that are loosely integrated into our application for supporting our RSS feed engine. There are a couple of things in the file that I have fixed to keep it running and up to date with changes to PHP itself, and I would be more than happy to contribute those changes back to the community in addition to responding to change requests, bug fixes, support, etc. Regards, - Sean
