Sorry to bother but it's been two days i haven't received any message via RSS. Your atom-beta link doesn't work anymore, and the regular links you provide are detected as invalid by thunderbird.

I'm pissed off as Stefan or Chris can be, and i didn't say anything before checking how the changes will go.

Ok, now i see. We are disconnected. Completely.

As i won't read a forum, i never do, i would appreciate if you could provide information why the rss doesn't work anymore.

And may i suggest c74 really think of rolling back.

I understand you don't like the change, but sometimes it's better to join them than to fight 'em. Cycling already stated it costs too much maintenance to keep both functioning and they chose the forum...

Seriously, I went up at least 10 points on the scale of gayness when my friends saw me working with rounded corners, but that's too bad, nothing you can do about it. Bummer . Trying to stick with the old would be even worse...

I'm ok with rounded corners while it does not prevent me to work, but the switch to the forum is another thing. They can cut the list, but at least do something for the long time users, like helping us to get a working rss feed, what you think ?

Sorry to hear it. Setting things up on Thunderbird took all of about 5 minutes once I'd gotten things sorted, and it's working just fine, ticking right over.

I have the same problem than f.e (latests Thunderbird running on the latest OSX5): no new posts on the MaxMSP feed (the other ones seem to be up to date) since yesterday afternoon (european time) although it worked well since more than one week.

The only differences I found between my settings and the opml file you gently sent is that I have a n bigger than yours. With 10, I missed messages so I tried 200 which work up to yesterday.

I'd like to treat this like a normal software bug, but I already spent a lot of time testing the MaxMSP RSS feed in Mail, Safari, Vienna, NNW and finally Thunderbird (which is the only news reader that do correct threading - that's why I have to use it) to slowly getting tired. I would highly prefer to test Max 5.0.6 (btw, the only message I received from this 5.0.6 thread is ej's about endianness, so I almost missed this good news).

Thanks, Gregory. I have used your links, it worked for 2 days, and now it is broken again. I haven't received any messages since yesterday...

in Thunderbird (v2.0.0.19) changing in the "c74xubs.opml" file the lines for MaxMSP subsription from atom-test to atom fetch only one RSS message.

https://cycling74.com/forums/atom.php?frm=7&

Changing the "n=1" to "n=100" gives in Thunderbird (german) the error message 

;mode=m&l=1&n=1&basic=1 ist kein gültiger RSS-Feed" 

The equivalent setting (change "atom-test" to "atom" and "n=1" to n=100" for jitter subscriptions works well.

Same here... all forums work but the Max/MSP one, which is the only one with a high traffic. I suppose it is somehow related, and probaly caused by a bug in Thunderbird as all cycling74 feeds in Vienna are up to date.

But checking the Error Console I just discovered, I've got the following when I try to update the feed :

Error: not well-formed

The small arrow is pointing to the first < occurence (column 63)

The troubleshooting thread seems to be this one (and probably a post by ej - thanks ej ;-):

So, wether TB is too sensible to the syntax, or the feed is indeed "not well-formed". And so maybe the reason of these problems is not the traffic, but some incompability beetween the formatting features of the forum and TB.

Wallace, any ideas how we could solve this ?
