This sounds like an excellent opportunity for iterative development.
Break down the tasks into several demonstrable steps, and do them one by
one. Example:

1) Write a command line program to download the contents of a URL.

2) Add the ability to parse the XML using SAX or a DOM parser.

3) Iterate through the parsed output, printing the description of each
item in the RSS feed.

4) Start building the GUI around it.

5) Package it up
