- Remove docs/CHANGES; see git release tag description.
- Remove docs/CREDITS; see git history.
- Deprecate filters. Filters used to be necessary for getting
https or Atom feeds. Since both of these were very common, everybody
had to use filters. Now snownews reads https and Atom natively
and filters just aren't needed any more for most people. So keep
supporting them, but stop mentioning them favorably in the docs.
- Remove the bugzilla example script. Having contributed scripts in the
main repository is a bad idea because I can't test them and thus
have no idea whether they work. They were never even installed by
default, making discoverability a problem.
Stop reading or creating the html_entities config file. libxml
htmlEntityLookup already knows about all the entities, so there is no
reason to make the user type them in manually.
The old format consisted of |-separated lines, one per feed. OPML is the
usual standard for RSS feed lists, and snownews included the opml2snow
utility to convert to and from it. This commit converts urls format to
native OPML, removing the need for the utility. The file is also renamed
from urls to urls.opml.
