Hi Randall, Hello all:
Textonly (http://www.textonly.in/) unfortunately has some bugs in the
current stateless Protocol, the code et al, aside some minor errors
rendering properly the RSS to Text ( tested twice).
I would highly recommend the developer to debug and deploy correctly his
web/domain (app?) and once this is done, we'll see.
Future Stakeholders and supporters look deeply into details.
Kind Regards
