When some feed readers see an entry that has a atom:content with base64
content AND an atom:summary with text, for some reason they choose to
show the raw base64.

I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time.

Yeah, I noticed that when I was testing our image content support. Most feed 
readers (I tested about a dozen or so) either showed the raw base64 or 
nothing at all. One couldn't parse my test feed at all when it contained 
base64-encoded content. Why am I not surprised?


Btw, were your tests meant to be using a media type of applcation/xml 
(note the missing 'i')?

I don't have access to a Windows box right now... how does snarfer do on
these tests?

Oops. Fixed.
