[Avid-L2] Re: The L2 has a blog? who knew

The Yahoo RSS feed's performance for the L2 has been dismal at best. Late posts, only about 20% message arrival rates, it's horrid. The direct mail feed goes to the Avid L2 blog, then the blog RSS feeds out to the L2 Facebook page.

extra servers involved, but the message relay looks pretty damn perfect!
