Yahoo News feeds

[Julian Bond <julian_bond@voidstar.com>]

Just hit a problem with Yahoo News Search feeds. I use <guid> then 
<link>+<title> to try and look for uniqueness in items. The Yahoo feeds 
<link> often includes things like session IDs for the source site which 
change every time they spider the site. So the items in the feed look 
like they are new every time. It looks like I'll have to write code to 
strip this out.

Incidentally it would be good if the News Search feeds put the search 
query into the <channel><link> they do this in the 
<channel><description> so it shouldn't be hard.
