As I’m sure you’re aware by now, SimplePie is in a bit of a transition. The project is growing, and we’re up to 4 public products right now (SimplePie, SimplePie Live!, SimplePie for WordPress, and SimpleReader Mobile), we’ve got a good product in SimplePie 1.1, and we’ve got our sights set on SimplePie 2.<\/p>\n

As we’ve previously discussed, we’re looking for some new development help. Particularly, people who can help us grow toward our vision — not people who want to maintain old PHP 4.x releases after we’ve moved to pure PHP5. The first person to come to mind when we started looking was Steve Minutillo.<\/p>\n

Steve is the developer of a web-based feed aggregator called Feed on Feeds<\/a> that is currently based on SimplePie, so he has experience in using SimplePie for complex projects. Steve has been a very valuable patch contributor up to this point, and he accepted our invitation to join the SimplePie development team.<\/p>\n

We’re still looking for a few more developers to help us grow this project out more. Particularly if you’ve got experience with PHP, RSS\/Atom, mobile apps, JSON web service APIs, and the like, we’d love to have you on our team. The best way for us to notice you is to provide detailed bug reports with patches, so if you’re itching to get more involved in your spare time as a contributor\/developer, this is the way to do it.<\/p>\n

Please take a moment to welcome Steve to the SimplePie team! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
