Change Log for intraVnews 1.11

After recent discussions in various places about RSS scalability and bandwidth consumption, we have uncovered three issues which we found important enough to address right away:

Expires:
If an Expires header was received, intraVnews could incorrectly parse the date and create an incorrect schedule.
Caching:
When a feed was being updated, intraVnews 1.1 would always ask for fresh results, even if the server had cached results available. One way for webmasters to minimize bandwidth impact for popular feeds is to provide cached results. By using cached results, updating will be faster too.
TTL:
It was possible to create a custom schedule which would update a feed too frequently. Although intraVnews uses TTL to create a new schedule automatically, the TTL was not used when making a custom schedule.

We also fixed a long time issue that was becoming quite a "call generator". To minimize impact on servers, intraVnews was designed to make a HTTP HEAD request in order to determine whether new content is available. The advantage of HTTP HEAD is that the response does not include any content.
Unfortunately, there are some servers which do not support HEAD, even though all servers are required to according to HTTP standards.
We now eliminated the use of HEAD without making any sacrifices. If anything, performance is better and bandwidth use is less than with prior versions.

All Fixes for build 1.1.1740.20779

Some DOCTYPE declarations were parsed incorrectly. This made it impossible to subscribe to some feeds.

All Fixes for build 1.1.1724.42054

HEAD request no longer made. This fixes issues with some feeds generated by web services and feeds on servers that do not support HEAD requests properly.
We now use GET only, of course with full support for Etag and conditional GET).
Hyperlinks to intraVnews website updated (.htm to .aspx).
Conditional GET implementation would cause HTTP 200 (OK) in some cases where a HTTP 304 (Not Modified) was expected (Estimated 10% of the time).

All Fixes for build 1.1.1717.18990

If a Beta/RC version was activated, activation could be lost.
Symptoms: The licensing dialog still indicates intraVnews is activated, but intraVnews behaves as if the trial has expired.
"Expires" header was sometimes parsed incorrectly causing an incorrect update schedule for the feed.
intraVnews will now properly schedule a feed update on the date and time indicated by Expires, provided it occurs after the default update time.
intraVnews will now accept cached results for all requests.
You can no longer create a custom schedule which updates more frequently than the TTL provided in the feed.
During feed updating, if a a server responds with "OK" but no content is received, the feed will now be rescheduled properly.
Some proxies would respond with HTTP 407 (Proxy Authentication Required)
Many or all feeds would have the error: "The server responded with an OK, but no feed content was received".
If a license needs to be updated (address change, transfer, etc), intraVnews can be re-activated.
Incorrect pricing in License dialog
