Description

The feed system currently will read each item once and post it to the room. However, it does not account for items which might change. Ideally if there is a change, we should repost the item again. Perhaps looking at the pubDate might help us.

Research direction

Start by tracing the feed system's item-reading and room-posting flow, then check how pubDate is currently handled. Done means changed items are reposted when appropriate while unchanged items are not duplicated.
