/**
 * @class
 * GeoRSS loader factory - inherits from remote loader.
 *
 * <p>This is a loader class for GeoRSS feeds. Parsing is complicated by the 
 * diversity of GeoRSS formats; this parser handles:</p>
 * <ul>
 *  <li>RSS feeds</li>
 *  <li>Atom feeds</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>and looks for geographic information in the following formats:</p>
 * <ul>
 *  <li>GeoRSS-Simple</li>
 *  <li>GML </li>
 *  <li>W3C Geo</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>At the moment, this only supports points; polygons, polylines, and boxes
 * will be added at some later point.</p>
 *
 * @example Usage in TimeMap.init():
 
    datasets: [
        {
            title: "GeoRSS Dataset",
            type: "georss", // Data to be loaded in GeoRSS
            options: {
                url: "mydata.rss" // GeoRSS file to load - must be a local URL
            }
        }
    ]
 *
 * @param {Object} options          All options for the loader:<pre>
 *   {Array} url                        URL of GeoRSS file to load (NB: must be local address)
 *   {Function} preloadFunction         Function to call on data before loading
 *   {Function} transformFunction       Function to call on individual items before loading
 * </pre>
 * @return {TimeMap.loaders.remote} Remote loader configured for GeoRSS
