Comments on RSS Aggregator Macro

This version adds the following improvements:

• Support for HTTP Basic Authentication with URLs in the form http://user:[email protected]/feed
• Message when there is an error retrieving a feed
• Preventing index out of bounds error when no items are read
• Translation of example table titles to English

Note: The related blog post mentions a security flaw on the original version of this script, but it has long been fixed.

@Jerome/@Fernando: would be cool to put the sources in a git repo and release a 1.2 version with your changes Fernando

@Vincent: Jerome is still supporting this extension so I'll leave it up to him whether to integrate my changes.

OK I can create a project in xwiki-contrib and Fernando you're welcome to bring your current and future changes in.

Personally I have no plan for this macro at the moment, so I guess whatever you want in gets in

Interestingly, there is a version of this macro in xwiki-contrib but it's not quite the same as the one available in this page. Maybe we should look into consolidating it into a single version.

Yep just seen that. I've pushed your version in it, and will release it ASAP.

Done

I tested v. 1.2 on a new XWiki 4.2 installation and it seems to be working for both authenticated and unauthenticated feeds. Thank you for integrating my changes.
