Hi,
I'm not sure if this really counts as a bug, but I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere: the RSS feed declaration in the html header is:
<link rel="newsfeed" type="application/rss+xml" title=.....>

and the feed is not automatically discovered by Firefox. In other places I've seen a different declaration format, which is audodetected, such as:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rdf+xml" title="RSS" href=...>

I wonder if this can be changed to improve autodetection. There's a discussion relevant to this issue at this page.

Fixed... by changing the rel attribute to "alternate". It worked on Firefox 1.0 though, but not anymore on 1.5.
