 * While trying to submit to several RSS directories, engines, etc. I got an error
   that they would not take the submission due to a “mandatory field missing..description”
   I checked the wp-rss2.php file and I can see a section on description but have
   no idea on how to edit this file. I ran the feed through feed validator and it
   says it is ok
 * Using Tiga Theme 1.01, WP 2.03, Blog is at [http://www.nevisblog.com](http://www.nevisblog.com)
   and the feed is [http://www.nevisblog.com/?feed=rss2](http://www.nevisblog.com/?feed=rss2)

 * Well… <description/> is no bueno for some aggregators.
 * If you go to Options -> General, what’s in your “Tagline” field?
