Hello. Out of general frustration with rss feeds in drupal, I made the attached changes to my installation so that timezones are properly handled in rss feeds and my posts don't come up 8 hours behind in aggregators. The patch also includes complete content forr blog posts, so that people can use tools like Flock and ecto and still have their technorati tags included in their rss feeds, not truncated out of the teaser.

What is really needed is a rss feed configuration page.

This patch is against 4.5, hopefully it'll still be useful for 4.7.

thanks,

Unfortunately, it certainly won't apply.
We need a patch for head, first.

I don't have a good feeling about the viability of this issue, but resetting status anyway.
(Second opionion on outright closing this? Is this still an issue?)

This issue was also addressed in #212864 and fixed for 6 head.

Since this issue still exists in Drupal 4.7.11 and Drupal 5.7, I also ported the Drupal 6 patch for both versions.

Committed to 5.x.

In the future, please post backports to the original issue.
