New version of Orango underway

I have spend some time re-doing me and Mathiases feedreader Orango. Well, I did this mostly to get in coding-shape again. The summer was long and I pretty much did not turn on a computer. I also got a job where I should be doing lots of programming... Well, I also needed a great feedreader!

Anyway, here are the changes:

• Moved away from ZODB
  DRMS. It's all MySQL now :-). This gives a major performance boost! And a lot of new features could be added in the future because of this move [favourites, search etc.]
• I re-did the parsing engine [which Mathias did last time]. I used feedparser. This means there is now support for RSS and Atom feeds.
• Added some new features in the user interface. A major one is that it is now possible to select the items.
• Rewrote the application logic. I tried to follow the model-view-controller design pattern. Moved to CherryPy 2.1.
• Changed the name from Orango to Orangoo

I am not (yet) going to launch this version, but you can get a sneakpeak (click for a bigger version).
