Om Malik comes through in the clutch: 

Steve “DA RSS” Gill-more wins … feeds restored to full length. Now I need him to convince ZD to remove its registration form!

Not sure what he means by ZD, Ziff Davis Media, who I used to work for, or ZDNet/CNet who host this blog, or what the registration issue is. I'm sure I'll find out though.

Parenthetically, Google's trial move into Adsense in RSS feeds is being offered by Feedburner. Now would also be a good time for Feedburner to follow through on Dick Costolo's promises to address the ability for Feedburner users to reclaim their feeds if necessary. In fact, the inability of individual publishers to move their subscribers from one host to another is an RSS rights issue that needs to be solved.
