Yes, but it still works. :)

If some developer cares, maybe.

I personally have lots of higher priority projects than the RSS feed 
currently (and I don't even use the RSS feed myself), but I would help 
integrating a patch if some developer cares for moving it to another 
framework and tests it with different setups and with the validator.

Maybe even some testing with the builtin xml support of different python 
versions would help. IIRC, the python xml guys think that all essential 
bugfixes that python-xml did are also in python stdlib now.

I have no idea for which python versions this is true (or at least 
enough for what moin uses) to work without pyxml.

We also need good code to check versions of the installed xml support 
(to determine whether we can offer RSS feed or not and also for display 
on SystemInfo).
