My RSS Feed Validates But Behaves Strangely

My RSS feed at <snip> validates nicely and displays properly the first time I add it to Bloglines ( [bloglines.com...] ) or in Mozilla Thunderbird. The problem is that neither of these two seems to notice whenever I update my feed with a new item! Could someone please have a look at my feed and take a guess at why.

Thanks,

Johan

Depending on the version of RSS, there is something like "Pub Date" or something similiar which for the feed which indicates when it was last revised - make sure you are changing that value.

There is also a lastBuildDate field on the channel. Which of those two does what I want to?

Check out [rssdotnet.com...] and it will tell you what is required and what is optional. Make sure everything is correct and it should be fine.
