Chris and others, I just discovered something about the problem, and it seems to relate to my use of TurboGears redirect.
So maybe I should post this on the TurboGears group, but anyhow what I have discivered just now is that the Google Reader problem occurs with my URL that ends in '/rss' (name of my method from which I redirect to the FeedController URL ending in '/feed/rss2.0'). My pasted code here shows what I'm doing: http://paste.turbogears.org/paste/1334 This use of redirect works fine from the W3C validator and from my Bloglines.com subscription (each of which can access my feed indirectly via my URL ending in '/rss' ). But Google Reader won't let me subscribe to that URL. I just tried subscribing to the URL ending in '/feed/rss2.0' and yes Google Reader does let me subscribe to that. Here's my problem: in my project I will need to pass some keyword args as part of the feed URL (to specify customization options within a feed's data). But FeedController's get_feed_data seems to not allow *args and **kwargs, and so that's why I coded things using the redirect, so I'd be able to process data passed in URL via kwargs in my 'rss' method, store the data globally in my 'controllers.py' module, and then redirect to the URL ending in '/feeds/rss2.0' (which of course invokes get_feed_data, which then accesses the globally set customization data originally argument-passed in the URL ending in '/rss'). I've no idea why my redirect works fine from Bloglines and W3C validator, but not from Google Reader. Any ideas please??? Would there be some way to either do the redirect differently, or perhaps to pass along info from keyword args in a URL into the get_feed_data method? Thanks for any help.
