Email cleared and RSS feed fixed
We finished responding to every email received during the Maker Faire, and wrote everyone who gave us a business card. If you were expecting a mail and didn’t get one, please followup again, it may have been lost in the shuffle.
In site news, something happened to the RSS feed that caused it show a summary instead of the complete article. We’d never intentionally limit the feed to an excerpt, it looks like there was a problem with WordPress or a plugin. Everything has been upgraded and the cache cleared, the feed seems to show the full articles in our Thunderbird RSS subscription now. We apologize for any annoyance caused.

Click me, still I’m showing excerpt feeds.
I wish you would have used a real email so we could debug this :(
When I click I also see the read more… in Fire Fox’s XML view. However if I go view source I see the full post in the XML. Is it possible your reader has changed?

I’m seeing this in Firefox.
Thanks, as far as I can tell this is something firefox is doing. The full source is there (right click, view source), and I don’t see any tags that would limit length (if that even exists).

Sorry, wrong link. This is a description of the issue, it is FireFox using the description string. I can hack wordpress to fix it, which I will do soon:
