Re: [Rssview-developers] Do we need exclusive mode?

[Matthias S. <sch...@su...>]

Hi Christoph + *,

although I don't use the exclusive-mode at all, Martin's point in keeping the 
ability to load feeds from files is a good one.

We probably face the problem in the future ( esp. when migrating to a new 
parser, which I consider a good idea), that some channels fail sometimes. 
Getting a snapshot of these situations as a clean testcase can become quite 
handy ...

cheers,

Matthias
