Description

The aggregator2_autotaxonomy feature is great fun. However; the fact that del.icio.us tags are space separated and not comma separated is a problem and needs to be fixed. I get these long mutant tags from delicious feeds now... Hope it's possible to fix it.

thanks for a very nice module,

I'm not convinced this isn't a bug with del.icio.us, but they are very popular that we should probably include a special case for them. I'm changing this to a feature request rather than a bug, since it's about supporting del.icio.us broken-ness -- agg2 is technically doing the right thing.

Here's an example link of the "mutant tags": http://personal.bmannconsulting.com/boris/pentax-imaging-optiowpi

Any suggestions on the best solution for this?

Is it a standard for DublicCore formatted RSS to put the categories as a space seperated string? I'm not too familiar with the DC format, outside of Delicious use.

As autotaxonomy was my baby, I'd like to get this "bug" fixed.

If is always a space separated string then a simple explode() will solve it.

Yes, it is always space separated. Delicious is the only one I've seen for this....don't know if a per-feed setting (separate tags with spaces) is overkill or not.
