Sorry, but I'm not impressed. It's yet another LL-TL-BC (see http://www.zedshaw.com/essays/i_want_the_mutt_of_feed_reader...) RSS reader, and even one without built-in OPML import.

That's a brilliant article you linked to, I do enjoy Zed Shaw's style. However, that's not going to stop me from trying this out, because Emacs.

I suggested it to Zed back when he wrote this, and I still suggest it today: just use mutt and an rss to email gateway.

(Loved this essay though, thanks for bringing it back!)

EmacsWiki [1] mentions "newsticker-opml-import". But I haven't used NewsTicker, so can't say if it is still true.

Usenet solved the rss reader problem decades ago. Gnus takes all that experience and applies it to feed sorting/reading. Manual scoring, adaptive scoring, group scoring, topics, virtual groups. And for extra points, load up your favorite feeds in gmane.org and browse rss over nntp.
