The only problem I see with Google Reader's feeds is that there are no
sub-directories in the categories. A feed can have several labels but
there is no hierarchy in the labels. That must be taken into account
but I don't think that this will be a problem.

So far I have a set of classes that retrieves the feeds from google,
then compares it to another source of feeds (currently an opml file).
Then it tells me which feeds need to be added, update or removed (but
I thin that a feed shouldn't be removed by default)

Dealing with Google Reader API is quite easy
(http://code.google.com/p/pyrfeed/wiki/GoogleReaderAPI) butI was now
investigating on the way to deal with Akregator. At first I was
thinking that using the DBus interfaces would be a good idea (this way
the module would have rather been independent of Akregator). But I
don't think that there are enough DBus interfaces available.

Didier.
