I made changes to support local feeds earlier in the week, in addition to a couple of other improvements (mainly the ability to click on a news item to get a larger popup view of the text). I will continue to test these over the weekend and will submit the patch to SF on Monday or Tuesday.

The My News plugin uses RSS.NET which contains a bug in the local file handling code. The crux of the problem is that it passes a URI to File.GetLastWriteTime which doesn't support URI formats. The Uri object exposes a property called LocalPath which should be used instead, then it'll all work fine and dandy. I will be submitting a patch to the RSS.NET project too.

* edit *

Also, the current implementation adds 'http://' to the beginning of the URI if it doesn't already start with 'http://'. I'll submit the relevant patch to SF shortly and can then continue to test my popup mods in my own time.
