Hi,

Are the IDs of articles published on bbc unique per article without
time limit? Or are the IDs reused with time.

Earlier today an article was published with the following url and title:

URL: http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/rss/-/sport1/hi/tennis/4620079.stm
ID: 4620079
Published: 24/06/2005 16:23:55

Later an second article was published using the same URL/ID:

URL: http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/rss/-/sport1/hi/tennis/4620079.stm
ID: 4620079
Published: 24/06/2005 16:30:10

I am going to do some more debugging on my system in case that it is a
bug on my side, but if this behaviour is possible in the bbc system
some insight would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Gavin
