Subject: Too liberal?
In version 1.1 of HTML::RSSAutodiscovery, the parser is far too liberal in finding links from the example diveintomark.org. Currently there are only two feeds which should be listed (one is typed specifically as rss, http://diveintomark.org/xml/rss.xml, the other is not, but will parse as rss, http://diveintomark.org/xml/blink.xml). Also, for the sake of potential users of the module (and to reflect current code), I would request that the SYNOPSIS actually display what $html->parse($url) will return instead of saying the data is too long. The format of the return value is important, and if the example isn't fit for the synopsis, maybe an alternate site (or a fictitios one) needs to replace diveintomark. Thank you, Gregory Williams

I'm not saying that there isn't a bug but I am unable to reproduce it. Show quoted text

This information is listed in the POD for the locate method. (A "see below" has been added to the SYNOPSIS.)
