Updating from v2.x.x

The previous 2.x.x version of Synapse-RSS was distributed as an Advanced Power-Up. This service must be removed from the Cortex prior to updating.

The rss.last.get and rss.last.set commands have been removed, and the --newonly option has been removed from the rss.read command. The full feed is always retrieved and parsed, while only URLs from newly created media:news nodes will be downloaded.

The --tag, --tagtime, and --scrapealts options have been removed from the rss.read command. The functionality those provided can be replicated by the user when invoking rss.read if desired.

The --nofollow option for the rss.read command has been renamed to --skip-follow.
