Author: sjehudaCreated Jul 16, 2026Updated Jul 16, 2026

What type of suggestion are you making?

New extractor / type of content to save

What is the problem that your feature request solves?

Archiving (X)HTML documents as Atom documents (RFC 4287) and DocBook would be useful.

What is your proposed solution?

In this project, I utilize Atom Format as a base document fot data processing and publishing; so it can be explored to demonstrate this concern.

It is possible to extract Title, Subtitle (description) and guess categories, and port (X)HTML document to Atom document.
