We will end up using it more as we develop our web products. Let me know if there is any way my team can help be involved in this project.

Nothing like a trial by fire to get the coding skills up to speed. =) Looking forward to the next versions. Good luck to both of you.

Geoffrey, I'd never criticise anyone for "following their heart" so I wish you the very best with whatever you're moving on to. I hate PHP as well, but for different reasons ... I'm just rubbish at it :/ Ryan, it's good to hear you and the SimplePie community are still on board. Thanks to you all for your great work :) I’m sorry, too – I’ve only just discovered SimplePie and am bowled over by the amount of enthusiasm, participation and support it brings with it!

I do, however, want to share a few things that we are planning: 1) SimplePie is NOT stopping development. I have big plans for where I want to take SimplePie, and those can't happen if SimplePie is dead. In posts over the past few months, I've talked about where I want SimplePie to go, and that is still the plan, although it may take a little longer. 2) Over the past 3.5 years, SimplePie and it's community have grown larger than Geoffrey and I could properly handle. It's certainly larger than I alone can handle. Geoffrey and I will be looking for people in the SimplePie community to get involved with development, support, and other various aspects of the project. 3) I'm expecting to release SimplePie 1.1 in a matter of days. We also have a MySQL-capable branch that was likely to be 1.2, and will now definitely be 1.2. SimplePie 1.5/2.0 are no longer on any kind of timeline, as we need to get new people involved and up to speed first before we really plan those releases out. As soon Geoffrey and I have time to work out more of the details, we'll be sure to let you know. :) Geoffrey spoke to me about this a few days ago, and he and I have not had much time to go over the details of this transition yet because of the holiday break.
