Alright, L. M. Orchard took my technique of RSS scraping via Tidy and XSLT, and produced a RESTful web service to do this. You provide a URL for the site to scrape, and the URL of an XSLT transform and it returns RSS.
You’ll recall that he tried this by chaining the W3C’s Tidy and XSLT web services, but they didn’t provide the configuration options to force Tidy to produce output in spite of errors in HTML source, nor access to handy functions from the EXSLT library.
