I work on a project which creates RSS feeds for sites which don't offer their own: Feed Creator - http://createfeed.fivefilters.org/

And one which converts partial feeds into full-text feeds: https://fivefilters.org/content-only/

Cool project, I was searching for something like this a while ago and then tried to build something similar. It's not as cool and full featured as yours though; you have to write your own plugins for each site. It was still fun to build though.

I came across your project a while ago. I was actually trying to search for it today to post a link to it in reply to another comment. I only remembered the 'bridge' part and assumed it was in PHP, so my search didn't bring it up. :)

I use a modified Scrape ‘N Feed to scrape the sites I need without RSS. With this I can go another level deeper and scrape the entire article and return that back to the feed instead of just getting the snippet.
