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.
