  Description : Parse OPML, RDF+FOAF, and iGoogle subscription lists

 Parse OPML, RDF+FOAF, and iGoogle subscription lists
 listparser is a Python module that parses subscription lists (also called
 reading lists) and returns all of the feeds and subscription lists that it
 finds. It supports OPML, RDF+FOAF, and the iGoogle exported settings format,
 and runs in Python 2.7, Python 3.3 and up, PyPy, and Jython.
 .
 The OPML specification defines an outline as a hierarchical, ordered list
 of arbitrary elements. The specification is fairly open which makes it
 suitable for many types of list data, like RSS feeds.

 This package will be used as dependency for gnome-feeds.
 It will be under DPMT maintainership.

This seems a bit strange to me: "a Python module that parses
subscription lists…and returns all of the feeds and subscription lists".
I think that this sentence should be rewritten to include the following
info from the upstream description "a dictionary will be returned with
several keys" (README.rst).

To summarise:  parses lists and returns a dict in OPML structured
format.

I'm concerned about the repetitive and ambiguous use of "lists" in the
Debian description.

Thanks,
Nicholas

Hello Nicholas,


  suitable for many types of list data, like RSS feeds.


This seems a bit strange to me: "a Python module that parses
subscription lists…and returns all of the feeds and subscription 
lists".
I think that this sentence should be rewritten to include the 
following

info from the upstream description "a dictionary will be returned with
several keys" (README.rst).

To summarise:  parses lists and returns a dict in OPML structured
format.

Debian description.


You are totaly right, the wording was prone to confusion so I updated 
that description.

The package and its control file can be found here:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/modules/listparser/-/blob/debian/master/debian/control

Thanks for your suggestion,




Thanks,
Nicholas
