Dead Project?

Open BrewerJack opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

I came across this library searching for something to help generate MRSS feeds, but it appears to be largely abandoned as there are PRs from last year with no movement.

Is development dead on it?

+1 Are there any active alternatives ?

@BrewerJack @npezolano

Seems like this fork https://github.com/tobinus/python-podgen is active

Depending on your needs, podgen really isn't a good alternative. To quote from their website:

This project is a fork of python-feedgen which cuts away everything that doesn’t serve the goal of making it easy and simple to generate podcasts from a Python program. Thus, this project includes only a subset of the features of python-feedgen. And I don’t think anyone in their right mind would accept a pull request which removes 70% of the features ;-) Among other things, support for ATOM and Dublin Core is removed, and the remaining code is almost entirely rewritten.
