Ever since the Humble Bundle, none of Paizo's RSS feeds have been working in Feedly. When I tell Feedly to go add them, it says they cannot be found, while viewing them directly in the browser still displays well-formed XML--I would expect it to be fine.
It gets a little stranger, though: while investigating what might be going on, I found that the Paizo servers are returning 404s for some types of requests and 200 for other requests of the same URL. Default wget fails while default curl works.

I'm not absolutely sure what's going on, but it strikes me as odd that for one of these two requests, the site returns an "application not found" error.

Hmm. Not that I have any idea what's going on in the back end (nor should I), but I briefly got excited because a different link showed up on the blog RSS link. It has since reverted, but I managed to dig it out of my history and it still works:
And I tried building a corresponding URL for the Pathfinder Design Team account, which also seems to work:

Just wanted to follow up on this and say that yeah, things are working again. I don't know if it was just the RSS validation or what--since the 404 error was so obvious and the alternate location worked I didn't even think to try validating the feeds!
Anyway, thanks. Things are working.
