Over the last week, we've been working on support for reading Atom
feeds in Manila and Radio UserLand's news aggregators. Before a general
release, we wanted to give the manila-dev and radio-dev folks a chance
to test, and send your feedback.

*** Here's how to test:

1. Download the formatDriver for Atom 0.3 here:

http://static.userland.com/rack1/gems/frontierManilaSite/
atomFormatDriver.fttb

2. Bring the Frontier or Radio application to the front, and import the
downloaded file, using the Open command in the Frontier/Radio File
menu:

- On Windows, right-click the Radio or Frontier icon in the System
Tray and choose Bring to Front. On Mac OS X, click the Radio or
Frontier icon in the Dock. Then choose File -> Open, and open the
downloaded file.

- Click Ok in any confirmation dialogs that appear.

3. Subscribe to an Atom 0.3 feed. Many sites with Atom feeds are listed
on this page, on the Atom Wiki:

http://www.intertwingly.net/wiki/pie/ListOfFeeds

Go to your aggregator/news page, and verify that you see some new items
from the Atom feed you just subscribed to.

4. Send an email to the manila-dev or radio-dev list (depending on
which app you're using), and let us know that it worked.

If it didn't work, please send an email which includes the following:
What application you're using -- Radio or Manila. What platform you're
using -- Mac or Windows. What you did, with as much detail as possible.
Any error messages you received, and any details about what happened
when it didn't work.

*** Feedback

If you have any other questions or comments, please post them as a
reply to this message.



Thanks,
