RSS feeds: poster's name? Do y'all see the poster's name in your RSS feed? →[More:]I read metachat in google reader and I don't ever see the name of the person who made the post (I do get this with Metafilter). But I just subscribed to the comments in a metachat thread and I get the username for each comment! I'm still pretty new to this RSS thing; what am I doing wrong? How do I get my reader to tell me which bunny posted what?

What address are you using? http://metachat.org/xmlsrv/atom.php?blog=5 (the Atom feed) has them, the RSS 1.0 and RSS 2 feeds don't.

aha! Thanks, cillit bang! I must have been using one of the other feeds, because when I resubscribed with Atom it works now. Totally sweet!
