[Chapter-delegates] Performance problems on your web-site when syndicating www.internetsociety.org/headlines/rss

[Klaus Birkenbihl]

Hi Dan, all,

thanks for the fix.
Just a reminder that the educational video on
http://www.internetsociety.org/rss still is blocked.
Maybe subst the fake video by a youtube link might
be an alternative.

But this is just a "normal" issue under many ...
Regards,
Klaus
