I am done with an initial pass over my Java RSS Parser.  Its supposed to handle all variations of RSS including 0.9x, 1.0, and 2.0.  Its a forgiving parser designed to handle the meanest and ugliest RSS feeds.  It still requires well-formed XML though.  I'll add a regular expression based version as a fallback parser to handle not so well-formed XML if there is a need.  I'll need more information on variety and quality the feeds out there though.  If you have a RSS feed, this baby will likely visit you sometime over next few days.  Its name is Daily, Docuverse Daily that is.
