After all the hard work required to release Modest and Tinymail I finally found some energy to start a new pet project. I have never really liked the RSS reader that comes with the Nokia N900 Igalia gave me. I looks too “Diablo” and it’s not consistent at all with Fremantle look&feel.
That’s why I decided to write my own and, at the same time, regain contact with Python. The result is ReSiStance 0.1.
