Alpha 8 Update

We’re now live on alpha 8!

Notable changes since alpha 7:

• Collapsible Item Tags Form - some folks wanted to be able to get it out of the way, now you can.
• Read and Flag Buttons in “River” View - the keyboard shortcuts were the only way to set these on items while in the “river of news” view previously.
• Lightweight Bookmarklet Subscribe - when subscribing to a feed through the bookmarklet (which has an updated URL now), the subscription is added to the queue for processing and you are shown a confirmation message (instead of loading the entire FeedLounge interface).
• OPML Import Counter - shows how many feeds are remaining from your import, but doesn’t maintain this during a page reload (yet).
• Duplicated Content Fix - an update to the feedparser took care of this.
• Item tags in Safari - can be removed as expected.
• History Screen Fix - a minor MySQL to PostgreSQL conversion issue was fixed, unread items aren’t shown anymore.
• Broken Subscriptions - are shown properly as broken instead of “Untitled” in the feeds list
• Gmail Feeds Work - fixed an SSL timeout issue.

Monday is coming fast, so please let us know in the forums about anything that doesn’t look just right.
