The Linked IE7 Blog entry said, that IE7 will add a "Windows RSS Platform" for all Platforms supported by IE7 (XPSP2 and higher).

If i understand the Blog entry correctly it will have a "Common Feed List" that all Apps (currently only IE7) will use to list/manage RSS Feeds.

Thunderbird should somehow support this List (at least give the user the option to import Feeds from this List, but the ideal solution would be to sync all RSS Feeds subscribed in Thunderbird with this list including what parts are allready read and what parts are new [if such a feature is supported in this List])

Reproducible: Always

this api seems dead, and never made it to win7 even (afaict).
