[[!template id=gitrepo repo=rss2email]]

Since November 2012 I've been maintaining [rss2email][], a package
that converts [RSS][] or [Atom][] feeds to email so you can follow
them with your mail user agent.  Rss2email was created by the late
[Aaron Swartz][AS] and maintained for several years by [Lindsey
Smith][LS].  I've added a [mailing list][ml] (hosted with [[mlmmj]])
and [PyPI package][pypi] and made the GitHub location the homepage.

Overall, setting up the standard project infrastructure has been fun,
and it's nice to see interest in the newly streamlined code picking
up.  The timing also works out well, since the [demise of Google
Reader][GR] may push some talented folks in our direction.  I'm not
sure how visible rss2email is, especially the fresh development
locations, hence this post ;).  If you know anyone who might be
interested in using (or contributing to!) rss2email, please pass the
word.
