And we love contributions so if you want to take a stab to see if you can resolve this please go ahead. http://camel.apache.org/contributing.html On Mon, Nov 9, 2009 at 11:13 AM, Cliff Court <cl...@vine.co.za> wrote: > > Many thanks to those who have commented on my initial post. > > Here's a bit of an update on what we've found with some additional > investigation on the behavior of the RSS component. > > It appears that if you configure it to pick up one item/story at a time (as > opposed to the entire feed), it will do this until it reaches a feed that is > earlier than the one it previously read.
