This library depends on QtXml (quite heavily in fact). That very Qt module
is deprecated [1].
Funnily enough, that is the only place that mentions it as being
deprecated. No QtXml classes mention it in the docs and you won't get any
compiler warnings either when you decide to use it.
When searching for bug reports for deprecating QtXml i found [2] where they
say it's been mislabeled and should have the same status as Widgets. Aka:
done.
Which also means it might go deprecated in some future release (Qt6?).
Now i don't know what the real state of QtXml is, but if it really is
deprecated then i don't know if it's wise to release this library while
depending on a deprecated module.
In that case it might be better to "port" (which probably requires quite
some work) to the QXmlStreamReader and QXmlStreamWriter.
Just my 5 cents :)

KF5Syndication is an RSS/Atom parsing library. It also provides API to fetch<br>

It's a Tier 3 Framework (depends on KCodecs and KIO). AFAIK it's currently \

I would like to submit KF5Syndication for the standard 2 week review<br>
