 * In 2.8.1 wp-includes/feed-rss2.php is calling the_content() not the_content_rss().
 * Why?
 * feed-atom.php is too.

 * Did I post this in the wrong forum? Really curious about this because I find 
   it misleading – the_excerpt_rss() gets called, but not the_content_rss().

 * I’m also curious about this. Why is the_content_rss not used in rss2 or Atom 
   feeds when other rss filtered data is used?
