This is the stupidest thing ever. We’ve had a bit of trouble with the implementation of rssCloud on the new Automattic-hosted server, the pings to coming from one server in particular. We did finally get to the bottom of it and all of a sudden it’s working. Except for Scripting News. I added debugging code, stared at server logs, and scratched my head, until I decided to check if I was subscribed to the freaking feed. I wasn’t. Once I fixed that little oversight, it’s all working, nice and fast. Sometimes the bug is in your brain not in the software. 😄#
