Yes, I am aware of those.. Because, I submitted the 3/4 fix stuff for the 
Straw in PR long time ago. I am just create this port on my local machine 
and hold it until I figure how to get fix with the adns stuff. It might be 
because of python adns or adns isn't being thread safe? I really don't know 
but I am going to ask few people for help with adns stuff. :-)

If anyone can get Mono to work with FreeBSD, then I will drop Straw and 
grab the GtkSharpRSS instead. http://gtksharprss.sourceforge.net
