Re: Problem with RRS Feed on planet.postgresql.org

Thanks for your response!

I think the problem aren't the guids themselves, just the "ispermalink=true" attribute.

For example, this item:
http://www.databasesoup.com/2013/08/94-commitfest-1-wrap-up.html

has
<guid isPermaLink="true">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7476449567742726187.post-6066898059205706249</guid>

but the source RSS feed (i assume its this one: http://www.databasesoup.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss ) has
<guid isPermaLink='false'>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7476449567742726187.post-6066898059205706249</guid>

So it seems that this property is mangled somewhere.

Best regards,
Jakob
