Log Message:
-----------
New link to plplot News rss feed taken directly from plplot sourceforge project page. Number of news items limited by breaking foreach loop after $newscount items. Item description needs to be stripped of HTML tags, since new rss feed adds some HTML tags (old news feed didn't contain suchs tags).
