Poll about my configuration
I recently changed the description configuration of my RSS feed. It used to be a forty-word description of the whole entry, but it now displays the entire entry in rich content (HTML + CSS). The problem is I am receiving complaints with either of these configurations:
- Some people don’t like the abbreviated description because it forces them to click to have access to the whole entry.
- Some people tell me the new configuration doesn’t work because not all RSS readers seem to automatically dereference the tag of my RSS feed.
What should I do? Revert to the forty-word description or keep it as it is?

What about providing two different RSS feeds?
Two feeds is a good idea. Personally, I prefer full content so I don't need to click through. The most aggregious is providing only a title and link (that would be the main reason why I am reading so much less Manageability these days).

Stick to RDF 1.0 and use the "content" module to provide a <content:encoded> element, as Fran
Would it kill you to provide both? I prefer the full feeds, but I'm quite sure there are those who would disgree.
