Doesn't have to be php...
While I agree that SEs won't do much with java, I have a client that successfully parses RSS feeds using dotnet.
Unfortunately, he won't have anything to do with php!
Granted, a Microsoft delivery system seems to thrive on code bloat -- it uses about 30 more lines of code than php, but the search engines read the updated feeds daily.
Yes, I like php better, too. But it's not the only option for parsing feeds that SEs can read.
