How to get an amazing feed reader for Maemo 5?

The official and 100% open source RSS Feed Reader will be ported. Anybody interested joining the development? Or building an exciting alternative?

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

If there is someone willing to push this we might consider to support the project as a Fremantle Star (((the selection of projects is still ongoing. Some candidates have been contacted already and others will be contacted soon))).

Very personal opinions:

There seems to be something still unsolved in the way local apps are offering and managing feeds nowadays. Probably we need a very creative approach? For instance what about an app + desktop plugin offering covering the features of RSS Feed Reader + Mauku + GPodder?

We are interested in hearing disruptive proposals (Firefox extensions, Qt based...) as much as pure evolutive getting involved in the development of the official RSS Feed Reader.
