Well why not fix the stock one so everyone can benefit from the extra features?
I've taken a quick look at "osso-rss-feed-reader" in Gitorious, which I think is the source for Maemo's RSS reader:

https://gitorious.org/osso-rss-feed-reader

It doesn't look too hard to work with, but it is a GTK project. For myself, I'd be more comfortable coding in Qt... But porting the Osso app to Qt would probably be such a big project, you might as well consider it a new app afterwards.


I've found a couple of very fascinating RSS discussion pages here on the Maemo site, started by Qgil; a wiki page on a new RSS app:

http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:RSS_feed_reader

and the corresponding forum thread:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=25706

It doesn't look like the effort got very far, though...
