Extra, extra, bug-fix bites dog :)
There's a new bug fix. What does it fix? That's a bit embarassing :s

The previous bug fix (the iso-8859-8-i one) worked fine on my old python 2.2 at home, but broke rawdog completely on 2.3.x (which is what people are downloading these days).

New release of dogwalker should work on all versions of python >=2 (i.e. all versions that can run rawdog anyway)

As always: If you already have a running dogwalker and you don't want to mess your config(s), don't download the whole shebang. All you need is the code.

And for those who keep asking: "Why don't YOU bloody number the vesions or something?" the answer is "I ain't getting paid for this :P". If anyone wants to manage this as a project on gna.org or whatever (or maybe even synch the project with Rawdog author Adam Sampson), you won't hear me complaining :)

Coming soon, a php solution to "wap doesn't work on tripod". Stay tuned...

Hebrew how-to (ynet)
If you're looking for a Hebrew how-to for DogWalker/RawDog, I wrote a Hebrew article about it for Ynet.

New Israeli-Linux-patriot-proof version
There are some Israeli windows-alergic webmasters that can't get themselves to write "windows-1255" inside their RSS feeds, so they use the politically-correct synonim "iso-8859-8-i" instead of the "w word" ;)
I respect them for their heritage, but some old distros of python don't know this encoding alias, and it made rawdog break on feeds like whatsup etc. when run on Guy's PC

Anywayz - it's fixed.

If you already have a running dogwalker and you don't want to mess your config(s), don't download the whole shebang: Here's the code (and you might want the nice new html template too).

Extra, extra, fish walks dog
We (Guy and Nimrod) have created this site just as a test-case and demo of the rawdog/dogwalker web-based RSS aggregator schtick (i.e. - we needed an "expendable site" and Guy chose tripod.
Anywayz - we've found out that tripod had this instant-blog thingie (not Hebrew, but fun anyway).
So here's where we can post stuff once in a while in hopes that the rss surfaces out on various out-of-the-box dogwalker pages.
Clever little devils we are. Eh? ;)
