I have regressed to 3.6.x because after installing 4.0 I lost my BBC headline news. And, posting that question here did not bring any results.

I have regressed to 3.6.16 because, after installing 4.0 I lost my BBC headlines. And posting a question in this place did not produce any results. I will re-install 4.0 once Mozilla repairs that problem. Thanks

This did not solve the problem for me. Anyway thank you. This link took me to the BBC News Home Page. There is no RSS feed there; it's only a flat page which I can bookmark in the normal way. What I have in 3.6.16 is a proper RSS feed with the following properties:

Feed location http://fxfeeds.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/headlines.xml

site location: http://www.bbc.co.uk/go/rss/int/news/-/news/

When I tried to copy the feed location in the address bar, nothing happens at all in version 4.0, while in version 3.6.x it gives you a dialog to fill the site location as well as the title you want.
