ROME is good


Bob Aman did a nice round-up of newsfeed parsers and Java's own ROME came in second (with the only rating of good) only to Mark Pilgrim's Python-based Universal Feed Parser (with the only rating of excellent). His findings are the same as those in Chapter 5 of my book (which lists Universal Feed Parser, ROME, Jakarta Feed Parser, RSS.NET and ATOM.NET), except that I rate Jakarta Feed Parser a bit higher. The book goes to the printers on March 10 and I'm in final review now, so I've still got time to add a reference to Kevin Burton's new Jakarta Feed Parser fork; I need to check that out immediately.
