Yeah, sure, I have that all the time. The weird thing is that even when 
using Ctrl+F5, my browser (Firefox) won't reload the XML feed. You'll 
have to go to xiph.org/flac/feeds/feed.xml, refresh the feed there with 
(Ctrl+)F5, to get the new news in the browser cache, then it will show up.

I don't know how long caches are usually held, but just for the record, 
that news item of Sony shows up here.

Ah yes, thats it.

Have you tried replacing the GET here:

  xhttp.open(GET,dname,false);
  xhttp.send();
  return xhttp.responseXML;

with a POST operation instead? See the GET or POST? section of this
page:

Right, I didn't know about that. Here's a patch, it seems to work, but 
I'm not really sure. With this patch, there seems to be no caching, but 
when I reverted it, it worked too. I really don't understand Firefox 
caching.


Well, anyway, a few sources on the internet say this should work and I 
don't see a way this might break anything.

Applied, thanks.

 Considering flac.sourceforge.net, is this ever going to be updated? In 
 case it should be redirected, I checked on my own sourceforge project 
 webpage, adding the following two lines to .htaccess should redirect 
 traffic to any resource on flac.sourceforge.net to xiph.org/flac
 
 RedirectMatch permanent ru/(.*)$ http://xiph.org/flac/$1
 RedirectMatch permanent (.*)$ http://xiph.org/flac/$1

Ralph? Any chance of getting this done?

Cheers,
Erik

Martijn,

I notice that in the feeds/feed.xml file there is a item titled Sony
launches its first FLAC-playing receiver but that does not show up
on https://xiph.org/flac/news.html.

Any idea what's going on here?

I'm currently trying to add a news item for the new release and trying
to understand how it currently works.

Cheers,
Erik

I was going to add something like this:

item
  titleFLAC 1.3.0 released/title
  descriptionFirst release in over 6 years from the new Xiph.Org 
maintainer team. No big changes, many small code and build 
improvements./description
  linkhttps://xiph.org/flac/changelog.html/link
  pubDateSat, 01 Jun 2013 12:00:00 +1000/pubDate
  guidhttp://flac.sourceforge.net/news.html#20130530/guid
/item
