Review request for Calligra, Adam Pigg and Dimitrios Tanis.


Description
-------

Main Window
* User feedback: added anti-DOS protection when updating feedback ui; this means that the client has basic protection even if for some reasons (like server setup bugs) too large files are transmitted as a response
* User feedback: added checking format of the .list files to avoid erroneous HTTP requests; this means that on any error causing broken content of the .list file (like a 404 or 408 messages), the list will not be considered as valid; this is future-proof protection


Diffs
-----

  kexi/main/startup/KexiWelcomeStatusBar.cpp 6f39e62 

Diff: http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/104158/diff/


Testing
-------

Tested for broken configuration scenario simulated on the kexi-project.org server (lack of file or not sufficient permission).


Thanks,

Jarosław Staniek
