It seems that the "feed" plugin is broken.
I had to change the plugin dependencies to point to the correct rome
library version.
<!-- changed the version thats bundled with v1.5.1 -->
<library name="rome-1.0.0.jar" />
<!-- added this due to a CNFE from rome -->
<library name="jdom-1.0.jar" />
Now it fails due to some (known) problem in rome.
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

Is there any workaround ?
