planet feeds and

[Enrique Rodriguez]

It looks like planet feeds need to have the <lastBuildDate/> Tag. One of 
the users of our planet, uses a weblog software (typo) that does not use 
this tag on its feed.

It look like this tag is not required by rss2 especification.
Did you know it? Am I wrong?

The problem is on Rome and com.sun.syndication library

        *if* (lastUpdated!=*null* && sub.getLastUpdated()!=*null*)
           {
               Calendar feedCal = 
		Calendar.getInstance();
               feedCal.setTime(lastUpdated);
               
               Calendar subCal = Calendar.getInstance();
               subCal.setTime(sub.getLastUpdated());
               

               *if* (!feedCal.after(subCal)) 
               {
                   *if* (logger.isDebugEnabled())
                   {

                       String msg = MessageFormat.format(
                   *        "   Skipping ({0} / {1})"*,
                           *new* Object[] {
                              lastUpdated, sub.getLastUpdated()});
                      logger.debug(msg);
                   }

                   *continue*;
               }
           }
