Yahoo! Answers RSS Feed no longer updates on my Yahoo! 360 page??

I've noticed that the RSS Feed to my Yahoo! Answers that I have posted in Yahoo! 360 no longer works.


Instead of updating like it should, the link only leads to a page of html code saying the XML-file seems to be missing associated information. It's stuck on questions I asked weeks, even months, ago, and not showing the latest ones.


Since the Feed USED to work until recently (2-3 weeks ago?) I'm thinking this is a Yahoo! Answers problem more than user error. Anyone else experienced something similar or know how to resolve it?


Tech note: I've Ping refresh requested at api.my.yahoo.com and the feed is valid according to feedvalidator.org. It just refuses to update on my 360.


Crossposted my question under the Yahoo! 360 category - answering one of the instances is enough. Thanks!

Saint_mic, I've just checked the RSS feed, and it looks like the feed itself is in order even though it isn't being displayed properly on your Yahoo! 360 page. I'd recommend sending a message to the Yahoo! 360 team directly to make sure they're aware of the problem or offer any solutions on their part:

Good luck! This kind of stuff does not happen out in the real world (very often)!
