I just noticed this hanging about, and gave it a whirl, to find that
it barfed in url-is-cached, because url-cache-create-filename returned
nil..

I fixed it by changing nnrss-no-cache to return something bogus but
still valid, like "/tmp/x" (instead of ""), but I'm not sure what the
proper fix ought to be (Shenghuo ?)


Just showing the URL all by itself in the article like that isn't
incredibly useful, though.  Maybe the pseudo-message could be some
kind of (pseudo?-)MIME type, so users could (via means that already
exist, IIRC ?) choose to either automatically show the article inline.
Or not.

Apologies if you've already thought of this.  Good work, dude !


(Oh.  Hmm.  The Newsforge one seems to have some extra text in the
article, that's not in http://www.newsforge.com/newsforge.rdf - where
does it come from ?)
