Hey Jeff,

Thanks for your interest in PressForward, we've now live on the plugin repository! http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/pressforward

Your points here are very useful. We're actually planning to allow OPML upload from the plugin's admin area very soon and folder and feed structuring are at the top of our list for the next major release.

There have been a lot of improvements since you last took a look at the plugin, and it is now structured to allow developers to hook into the plugin's functionality at a number of different places.

We definitely have a focus on using feeds for authoring, but I hope you'll give the plugin another try in the near future, at least to give us additional feedback.

Thanks!
Aram
