Possibly use a different library to parse RSS feed for improved performance and compatibility

I am a new nutch user and the ability to crawl RSS feeds is critical to my mission.  Do I understand from this (lengthy) discussion that in order to get the new RSS I need to either a) download one of the nightly builds and run ant or b) download and apply a patch (NUTCH-444.patch, I gather).

Nutch 0.9 can already parse RSS feeds (via parse-feed) plugin.
However, if you need the functionality of NUTCH-444, I would suggest
trying a nightly version of Nutch. Becase NUTCH-444 by itself is not
enough. You also need two patches from NUTCH-443 and probably
NUTCH-504. If you are worrying about stability, nightlies of nutch are
generally pretty stable.
