rss2xmpp, a script to crosspost any feed to Jabber

Usage:

$ rss2xmpp.py feed-URL your-jabber-id

On the first run the script will complain that you have to put jabber settings in ~/.rss2xmpp. It writes an example for GoogleTalk there. Either RSS or Atom feeds should work.

Requirements: FeedParser, html2text, and xmpppy, and Python, of course.

The script itself is in the BitBucket: rss2xmpp.py.

BTW, I discovered, that BitBucket not only provides free OpenSource hosting for mercurial repositories, but has free SSH access and allows one private repository per account.
