| Over the past four years or so, SimplePie has grown from a completely unknown set of functions sitting on top of MagpieRSS to one of the world's most popular feed parsers with thousands and thousands of users all over the world. Also in that time, SimplePie has started to outgrow its architecture. People use SimplePie for all sorts of tasks that we never really anticipated, so we believe we've now reached a point where it's time for a reset. | Over the past four years or so, SimplePie has grown from a completely unknown set of functions sitting on top of MagpieRSS to one of the world's most popular feed parsers with thousands and thousands of users all over the world.

| SimplePie 2 is currently in the planning stages, and is both a fork and a ground-up re-write of SimplePie. The intention is to enhance the performance by trimming the fat, to build something more extensible, to make it easier to contribute, and to optimize for the kinds of tasks that we see people wanting to do frequently. The purpose of this document is to put together a list of goals for SimplePie 2 that will improve the overall project as a whole, and unshackle some of the early design decisions which now seem to be holding us back. | SimplePie 2 is currently in the planning stages, and is both a fork and a ground-up re-write of SimplePie.
