Funny, I go to "Help -> Check for updates..." and it tells me that there are no new updates. Guess I have to get that ZIP file manually :)

Hmm, I am having a BIG problem with this release, and will be reverting to the previous version.

This version does not import the old version's feed correctly. I know that almost all of the feeds are not loading properly, and thus I am losing unread items. Is there a setting I need to change or anything like that?

Can't get images ie Dilbert, to load in the new version. In Jubilee it does work.

I think I will have to revert back, I upgraded yesterday and am now having major problems with large feeds or feeds that I have not set to remove old contents. Its completely killing a P4 system, with memory being used in excess of 750 mb!

The old one never did that :'(

Turned out to be the crappiest release ever. The whole purpose seemed to be scratching personal itches which broke even the basic functionality of feed reading.
