Re: [Fofredux-devel] odd condition with particular feed

[Andrew T. <ajt...@hi...>]

yeah, I noticed it was a podcast/itunes feed.
However, our final fallback sol'n should use items that are required
for a valid feed (e.g. that Magpie won't throw out - which has
happened for me w/ certain feeds)

though domain-unique UUIDs are a nice idea - seems difficult to
implement and maintain?
