Phil's suggestion for FeedParser was: "We need to make a decision on which way to go here...either demote back to sandbox/dormant or have someone step up to drive this component toward a release." I don't see anything that argued with the demoting, though I can only find the thread suggesting the change. I'm also unsure why we'd be happy to move FeedParser and Resources from Proper to Dormant (without going back to the Sandbox) and yet the same doesn't seem to hold true for Jakarta components (referring to the thread on general@). Whatever happens, Latka needs the same to happen for it. It's been released, but only a 1.0-alpha1 N years ago. Not sure that even counts.
