Description Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2009-03-10 23:05:04 UTC 
Hi,

The feeds in http://l10n.gnome.org/languages/ are broken. Many items in the feeds contain the same guids which is not correct and confuses some readers (e.g. Liferea and Opera).

See http://l10n.gnome.org/rss/languages/es and what http://www.feedvalidator.org/ says about it for an example.
Comment 1 Stephane Raimbault 2009-03-11 13:23:52 UTC 
It isn't trivial to fix because DL doesn't provide a permalink for each action.
I tried to provide an unique number as guid but the standard wants an URL :-/

We could play a bit with the URLs of Django to do that and give access to the action history.

«Definition and Usage

The <guid> element defines a unique identifier for the item.

Tips and Notes

Note: Aggregators must view the guid as a string. There are no rules for the syntax. It's up to the creator of the RSS document, to establish the uniqueness of the string.

Tip: GUID = Globally Unique Identifier.»

    Use anchors to define unique links for feed items (Fixes #574864)
