 rawdog: RSS Aggregator Without Delusions Of Grandeur
 Adam Sampson <azz@us-lot.org>
 
-rawdog is an RSS aggregator, based on Mark Pilgrim's flexible RSS parser. It's
-just an RSS aggregator; it's not a weblog authoring tool, nor is it an NNTP
-gateway, outliner, mailserver or anything else. rawdog probably only runs on
-Unix-like systems.
-
-rawdog reads articles from a number of RSS feeds and writes out a single HTML
-file containing the latest articles it's seen. It uses the ETags and
-Last-Modified headers to avoid fetching a file that hasn't changed, and
-supports gzip compression to reduce bandwidth when it has. It is configured
-from a simple text file; the only state kept between invocations that can't be
-reconstructed from the RSS feeds is the ordering of articles.
