Wordmobi 0.8.1
Debug messages should be removed in release version.
Ex.:
- nothing is set: An Posts update, one of returns is "(32, 'Broken pipe')"
message.
- proxy enable but not configured: An Posts update, one of returns is
"Syntax error at line 5: missing close tag for META" message.

In previous versions it was impossible to know what was happening with users 
since we
did not have any message from the lower level software layer (xmlrpc). So, I 
decided
to show to the user the content of this exception. Unfortunately at this time I 
can
not handle all possible exceptions to show to users only nice self-explanatory
messages. Worst: I am not sure if I can map all messages. 

I tested the condition "proxy enable but no configured+postupdate" and the 
message
was "errno socket error (61,'')". Yes, it is a debug message, but it is clear 
(for me):

61 : ECONNREFUSED : An attempt to establish a connection was rejected. This 
error
typically occurs with TCP when no passive open on the address is pending on the 
peer
system.

I will put this issue as low priority until I have time to test all conditions 
and
map all messages.

Thanks
This way, I can say to the user "please, check your proxy or access point".
