Changelog

1.5.1

• solved an XML bomb vulnerability

Important note: due to the security fix ROME now forbids all Doctype declarations by default. This will break compatibility with RSS 0.91 Netscape because it requires a Doctype declaration. When you experience problems you have to activate the property allowDoctypes on the SyndFeedInput object. You should only use this possibility when the feeds that you process are absolutely trustful.

1.5.0

• many (untracked) enhancements
• code cleanup
• renamed packages (was required to be able to push to Maven Central after years again)
• updated sourcecode to Java 1.6
