Note: FeedAPI versions lower than 1.9 are not compatible with Drupal 6.14 or higher (see #580508 for details).

Is there a reason why the latest beta isn't listed on the FeedAPI project homepage? There may be a good reason, but the above notice seemed important to me (as I was having the same issue). I just wondered if newer users wouldn't be as apt to find the 1.9x beta releases that fixes the "no updates on cron" problem.
