Gmail add-on not working

mdubord says:
I logged into gmail this morning and the RTM add-on was not there. I checked under Gadgets and it was not listed. Tried to add it again, and I got this message:

Invalid gadget specification. Ensure URL is correct and the gadget does not contain errors.

mdubord,
Assuming you have the "Add any gadget by URL" lab feature enabled (you'd have to to see the Gadgets tab), what URL are you using to add the gadget to Gmail?

My gadget has disappeared too, and trying to add it again gives the same error message: Invalid gadget specification. Ensure URL is correct and the gadget does not contain errors.

I think the URL is correct as I picked it up from the RTM info about this. Checking if it contains any errors is a little beyond my field of competence.

More information at this point:
There seems to be a temporary problem with the way Gmail is loading the gadget. The workaround is to use the HTTPS gadget. Its URL is https://www.rememberthemilk.com/services/modules/gmail/rtm_https.xml.

More information about the HTTPS version is in our FAQ, though that doesn't explain why it started happening this week. :)
