It has been in the Extras-Devel repository for a while. The main change in this version is the addition of a home-screen widget. This widget displays the number of unread messages for the top 8 feeds, even when the main application is not running. It also integrates a scheduler to enable regular automatic updates that will be running in the background (no need to leave the application running to get the updates). Double-clicking one of the feed titles will open the main application to display this feed.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedingit.marcoz.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Screenshot-20100522-101106.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10 aligncenter\" title=\"Screenshot - Home Screen Widget\" src=\"http:\/\/feedingit.marcoz.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Screenshot-20100522-101106-300x180.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"http:\/\/feedingit.marcoz.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Screenshot-20100522-101106-300x180.png 300w, http:\/\/feedingit.marcoz.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/Screenshot-20100522-101106.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The main application also received some updates, most notable for speed and memory management.

A first patch was submitted by Nelson a couple of days ago to add a setting to hide feeds and articles that are already read. It&#8217;s quite exciting to see new contributions like this, and let&#8217;s see how this project evolves with a more diversified input.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That&#8217;s right, the new version of FeedingIt, 0.6.2, is ready for testing.
