Re: xAP News and multiple stories




Ah, I notice on your scheme page something that seems to confirm
news.alert is only the top story as the schema does not include a
Count parameter in the news.feed block, nor does it allow for indexed
news.story blocks as it does for news.report messages.

Any thoughts on the best way to guarantee broadcast of all new stories
detected?

At the moment I think I'm going to have monitor every news.report
message, scan the contents and compare against my own saved history of
what headlines I've seen before. And also do it often enough to not be
limited by the xAP message size issue.

If I'm correct about the limitations of news.alert messages
potentially missing block story updates, do you think that would be a
reasonable change request for a future update someday?
