Wish to have a seperate release RSS feed
« on: July 10, 2008, 04:27 PM »
Hi Mouser,

Could you set up some seperate release news RSS feeds in DonationCoder.com for your softwares?

FARR is really good, I like it very much. For me, it's very easy to use, does not need any additional tweaking after installation. ;D

But FARR also updates very frequently, and I don't want to install the auto-updater utility of DonationCoder.com cause my PC is not fast, I wish install softwares as less as I can. I used to subscribe the forum's RSS feed, but I found it's so active, and the release news are posted in the modified sticky post. In fact, in most cases, I can not get the release news through the forum's RSS feed. :(

So, now I need to visit FARR's forum perodicaly for checking whether there is a new stable version. If there is a seperate RSS feed for the release news of it, I think it will be much more convinent for users like me. Thanks! :)

toadloading: You can use the updater with no problems! It makes zero-impact on your pc, because it only changes stuff in its own directory, and you don't need to even start it, you can set farr to launch it like.. Once a day, or something like that. And when it finds some update, it'll tell you.

if you only ever wanted to know about updates to farr you could go this thread and click the NOTIFY button:
http://www.donationcoder.com/forum/index.php?topic=10505.0
so you would be notified of new posts on that thread.
