Robert: Nothing about either pace will make it "not OK" to drop content- and summary-free entries on the floor, or come to a full stop when they're encountered. Such feeds would be completely useless in some apps, and therefore deserve to be tossed. PaceOptionalSummary simply enables an infinite loop of "talk to the other guy about that" responses to user questions, while PaceTextShouldBeProvided says that the tie goes to the aggregator. Kinda funny when you look at it that way, given the heated discussion on the subject. They could both be rolled into a single PaceWhoYouGonnaBlame and save everyone unnecessary reading. -- Roger Benningfield
