Hi, the current http://lwn.net/headlines/rss (Linux Weekly News) feed can be processed again without hanging the osso_rss_feed_reader. I preserved the 'malicious' rss file, which reproduces the hang, here: http://armin-warda.de/lwn.net-headlines-rss This has been reported as bug 466 to http://bugs.maemo.org/ by me. regards, Armin.
