Hmm... I could have sworn that it was about 10 minutes in between the
two (the mail had come so I went outside to the mailbox). To be safe I
just touched the file (I'm on Redhat 7.2). Still nothing. So I edited
it again and added yet another portlet. Still nothing. jetspeed.log
shows no errors. I tail jetspeed.log and touch it again. I see it
loading the old RSS feeds but it never sees the new ones...
