If I recall correctly (while designing the input
routines of FeederReader), I've seen in practice a
<description> and <content:encoded> in the same
<item>. When both are present, sometimes the
<description> is a shortened version of the
<content:encoded>. Often, this means the <description>
is cut off after a certain number of characters and an
elipsis (...) is placed at the end.

Not sure if this is RSS 2.0 or another of the 17
gazillion variations of RSS ;-)
