Bug Description

Added a new feed for trustafrica (new customer)
The name of their rss feed was:
Renforcer la Dignité de la Femme

when I put into karl.ini
title = Renforcer la Dignité de la Femme

I got this error:

Getting feed 'trustafrica' from http://feeds.feedburner.com/omd3blog... /opt/karlstaging/karl/trustafrica/trunk-1/src/karl/karl/utilities/feed.py:114: UnicodeWarning: Unicode unequal comparison failed to convert both arguments to Unicode - interpreting them as being unequal
if override_title and feed.title != override_title:
200 (ok)

It didn't appear to update the feeds with this error.

when i removed the é, had success running feeds

title = Renforcer la Dignite de la Femme

Not for OSI, so marking as Low. Chris has done the Feeds work in the past, handing to him (though he's out this week.)

Jim, we'll consider this one closed. But if you test Trust Africa and find it is still a problem, we can re-open.
