    Sunday Salon: IMPORTANT -- Feed problems

    I noticed this morning that I hadn't received many Salon posts via RSS yesterday. I've been looking into it, and it looks as if the problem is because the feed is now too big for FeedBurner to handle. At least, this is the message I get from FeedValidator:

    "Server returned HTTP Error 500: There was a problem retrieving the feed: com.burningdoor.rsspp.resource.impl.HttpConnectionException: Error getting URL: 502 - Source feed is too large ... maximum size is 512K"

    But I really don't know anything about this stuff, and maybe this is a temporary issue.

    However, I do know that this morning the longer feed works:

    http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=
    017b8ba97d12ca87a34c56b43c3eb3aa&_render=rss

    (I had to break the line in the address to fit it in the post; the line break would have to be removed for that address to work.) This feed is then fed into FeedBurner, which emits a new feed, and it's that new feed that isn't working at present:

    http://feeds.feedburner.com/SundaySalon

    I've changed my RSS subscription over to the longer version, and you may want to do that too, because this problem may not be temporary.

    Sorry for the trouble.
