I tried to find a way to post feedback on the Rome project page but was unable to. Even after registering and signing in, I just get another login page if I click on Edit for Feature Requests (or for anything else in the wiki). I hope it's OK to post the feedback here.
There is a serious bug in rome-fetcher 0.3. The constructor of AbstractFeedFetcher wipes out any existing system properties. Among other things, that means that running JUnit tests in ant fails because the formatter attempts to get and use the system property line.separator. The ant JUnit formatter also attempts to get locale information for the timestamp to print but the java.util.SimpleDateFormat constructor is unable to find the JRE zone files (because the system property java.home has been wiped out).
Instead of System.setProperties(props), you should iterate through the properties and set them (leaving any other system properties untouched).
