It might - do you think it would be more valuable if I used it to create one
that was more readable to a real human being?

Hi Julie,
I saw the files; they'll be helpful. The use
cases will be particularly helpful in getting the UI designed
correctly.
The RSS file is a little daunting. It looks
like it will take a bit of doing to extract all the various bits of information
that are packed in the <description> tag with the
<item>

Thanks, Jim. Related to that, the UI/Core group has a
directory in the TSSG 'Files --> Android Project' area called 'Core'
that contains some files we're working with. One is 'RSSitems.rtf' and
contains some of the <item> elements in a feed from a few days
ago.
The 'items' are raw RSS, so some components are not
immediately recognizeable, but it's good to know that > means the
> character and < means the < character. These would have
named tags (e.g. class, div) between them. Tag content is then
beween a <tag> </tag> pair.

I found this a helpful and concise description of the RSS
standard. It helps if you're conversant in XML
http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification
Look
at the descriptions of what you can put in the <description> part
of the <item> element.
