feed-to-muc
about
feed-to-muc is an XMPP bot which queries Atom or RSS newsfeeds and posts the short summary to a XMPP MUC if there is a new article.
disclaimer
I am no programmer and this bot is a result of a lot of try and error. There are probably lots of quirks that are remains of some wrong paths I went in between. Also a lot is probably solved in a hacky way due to missing experience.
Anyway, it works (for me at least) and so I upload this here. Recommendations about what can be done better improved and so on are very welcome.
