Re: [issue] Feeds and Character entities
Checking out directly into a live public_html directory is dangerous. Check out to a separate directory and use ‘svn export’ instead, as mentioned in the svn faq. e.g:
$ svn co http://svn.textpattern.com/development/4.0/ staging/
$ svn export --force staging/ public_html/
Or, if you’re not making any changes yourself:
$ svn export --force http://svn.textpattern.com/development/4.0/ public_html/
That will overwrite the contents of any files that already exist in public_html (including .htaccess). If you need to keep certain changes, use the first method, and ‘svn remove’ the file from your staging area before exporting.

Re: [issue] Feeds and Character entities
I’ve been having this same exact problem with needmorenotes.com for many months. We’re up to 4.0.2 and the problem still persists. Raw entities showing up instead of the correct characters. I see it, in fact, on the TextDrive blog feed itself. It’s terrible! Definitely what I’m experiencing is that it happens often, but sometimes only once per entity in a feed. That is, if a curly left apostrophe is shown twice, I see the entity code, but later in the feed the character shows up correctly!

Re: [issue] Feeds and Character entities
Ray,
This is probably a different problem. Please post a new thread with some details.
