DarkChannels 0.4.9 (PAINKILLER)

I have released DarkChannels 0.4.9, which is an alfa release of 0.5.0. This version supports all RSS versions, which was the last thing that bugged me in DarkChannels. To accomplish this, I needed to replace the XML::RSS:Parser::Lite Perl module by something other : I first tried XML::Twig, but the API seemed too complex, and I switched to XML::Simple instead. This meant replacing the core of the DarkChannels engine, so expect things to break from time to time in the next days.

I suffer from a heavy outbreak of hernia, so this version is mainly coded under the influence of strong painkillers - hence the release name (and another reason to call this an alfa release ;)
