Just yesterday I decided to give gnus a try as an rss reader and
slashdot was one of my test cases.  I see the same behavior as above.
However, I don't see it with a couple other feeds.  I also took a look
at the changelogs and nnrss doesn't seem to have changed in some time.
Assuming it did work correctly once, I suspect that slashdot has made
some change that gnus is not prepared for.

Also, I also gave nnslashdot a try but that has the articles all in
html which I find painful as I avoid html mails in general and when I
do I filter through lynx which no longer seems to work properly on
cygwin.  Is there a better way to render html in XEmacs on cygwin?  I
tried w3m many moons ago but had trouble getting it to configure and
compile.

Thanks,
