Re: Feed not approved

A spot check of the latest 200 approvals shows many that are about a
month and few more than several months old. Actually, there were none
older than June of 2008 among those I picked randomly although Mark's
feed, which I checked intentionally, obviously was. It almost appears

523819, has been "Awaiting Approval" since mid-2007.

One of my feeds number 548921 has not been approved. I added it to Syndic8 nearly a year ago (I then forgot about this) but it is still at the awaiting...
