hi
first of all - i'm not quite sure i'm writing to correct email - if not,
please forward it to person responsible for news.rss on postgresql site.

recently i wrote rss aggregator working as jabber bot.
everything works fine, but when i added your rss feed, i got error while
rss-parsing phase.

since i already parse approx. 60 rss feeds in at least 2 different
languages (english and polish) i think the problem is on your side.

details:
the bot is written in perl, and fetches rsses with LWP::Simple
(get(...)).
then is uses XML::RSS module to parse it.
it goes like this:

my $feed = new XML::RSS; my $sContent =
 get("http://www.postgresql.org/news.rss"); $feed->parse($sContent);

and here i got error:
Malformed RSS: invalid version

can you please fix it or point me how do i fix it on my side?

best regards

depesz
