New version RssOwl for Notes available

RssOwl for Notes is a full blown rss-reader for Notes 8.5.x
We've discovered a serious issue with the previous version: xPages in the Notes client would stop working.
The solution was to repackage RssOwl, and use the Apache HttpClient libraries that are shipped with Notes instead of the versions that are included with RssOwl.

More information on RssOwl can be found on http://rssowl.org/

You can install RssOwl for Notes by clicking this link  extension.xml and dragging it to the My Widgets sidebar panel in your Notes client.
If you have installed the previous version of RssOwl you need to remove that first, the feature and package names have changed.

Export all your feeds to an .opml file as backup before you remove RssOwl.
Future updates will work without removing the existing installation.

It's also possible to download the feature and plugins from the updatesite and import them into your own update site.
