Proposal to change shimbun-rss-build-message-id



The function shimbun-rss-build-message-id, which should build a unique
message-id from an URL and optionally a date, fails for some of my RSS
groups. This is due to two things:

* Everything after a '?' in the URL is ignored, which is problematic
  since some CMS (e.g. Typo3) can generate RSS feeds with URLs like

  index.php?id=100&item=3124

* The optional date is not used at all.

I attached a patch which should fix this.

Also, I fail to understand the meaning of the doc string for the
luna-define-generic of shimbun-rss-build-message-id. As far as I see,
the current implementation can never return nil. Maybe it should just be
changed to simply say

  "Build unique message-id from URL and (optionally) DATE, and return it."

Regards,
David
