Hi there, I'm using the breaking news XML at http://news.bbc.co.uk/nol/shared/bsp/hi/services/desktop_alerts/xml/ukfs/alert_data.xmlfor the http://twitter.com/bbcbreaking twitter bot. Over the last few days some odd things appear to have happened - it either changed the breaking news item back and forth a few times, and/or changed the ID of the news items.
The way the bot works is that it posts an item as soon as the ID in the XML feed is different from what it was previously. Should I change this logic? It's been working perfectly for at least 2 years, the issues only seem to have appeared over the last few days. Cheers, Mario.
