I've been messing around with Macromedia's RSS Untangler Java classes even further, and I think I've found something lacking.

I'm trying to grab the content:encoded element of an RDF file, yet it looks like they haven't created the methods to do so in any of their parser classes. It's an important element, because it will usually contain the entire content of a blog entry or news article.

So now, I'm trying to do two things: find the original author, and/or determine whether or not I can add the method to one of the parser classes myself, and whether or not that would go against a license agreement. I'd rather that Macromedia supported it a bit further, and released a new version, but I fear it's probably not going to happen.

It would be nice if the parser classes within RSSU grabbed all elements, and let you get to those elements by directly. I've written ColdFusion RSS/RDF parsers that do the exact same thing - they're just not as reliable or fast as RSSU.
