There were earlier issues with the newsfeed cache (NewsfeedCache.java) with
encodings that were fixed with ROL-766 in 2.0 and 1.3.
The fix for ROL-766 introduced an instance of this separate bug (ROL-1132)
which I just fixed now.
Since this was done based on code inspection rather than symptom reports and
verification, I don't know all of the actual symptoms fixed by these
changes. However, I suspect the issue you are seeing might NOT be the same.
Please send me a link to the feed URL you are using and I can do some local
testing. If it's a different issue, the fix won't make 2.3.

ps. Be aware that #showNewsfeed() was deprecated after the Planet
aggregation functionality came in.

Subject: Re: UTF-8 charset identifier
I have been having trouble with #showNewsfeed() messing up the utf-8
characters when displaying the feed. I wonder if this is the problem?
Check the right margin of http://www.cheblogs.com/roller/page/bblakeley
to see what I mean with the French newsfeed titles.

There are no aliases defined. In particular "utf8" is not officially
recognized, though some software does implement that identifier as an
alias.
In order to ensure maximum compatibility, I think we are best off using
the official forms "UTF-8" or "utf-8" (not "UTF8" or "utf8").
I fixed the cases of this that I could find. They were mostly in
Atom-related code.
