Blogging Roller: Progress on Roller 0.9.8.1.

Progress on Roller 0.9.8.1.

I've been making progress on a series of bug fixes for Roller 0.9.8. You can check the progress on Roller's JIRA issue tracker.

I just deployed Roller 0.9.8.1-dev to this site to test the new RSS 2.0 template. The old template was based on a very old Mark Pilgrim template and it used a bunch of Dublin Core elements like <dc:date> and others - it was pretty funky. If you complained that all posts appear to be new posts on JRoller, this site, and other Roller-based blogs then please give my new feed a try. Does this change fix the problem?

There are still a couple of issues to be resolved, so I'm not quite ready to deploy anything to JRoller.

The new feed looks pretty good in the readers I've been trying out. The full post is coming through now as well instead of just the description. The only issue I have is that one of the readers I have been testing (http://www.eugenebelyaev.com/beggregator/) no longer reads your feed, but this very well may be a bug in the reader and not anything to do with Roller. Anyway, the fact that CleverCactus will now read the whole post will enable me to go fully to that instead of using Beggregator which previously was the only reader I found that would show the whole post. Thanks Dave.
