no resubmit button for a feed #8

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

After submitting a feed, the user cannot resubmit it for processing. Feeds are 
supposed to be dynamic, in the sense that the data provider can update them, so 
we need to be able to reprocess them on demand.

Deleting a feed node and submitting a new one is not practical: From the 
perspective of data processing, Google will need to be able to do diffs between 
different versions of the same feed, so the updated submission needs to be able 
to have the same nid.

To do this, we need to know when the feed was updated, and the best way to find 
out is by having the user tell us. It would be impractical to regularly check 
all entered feeds for updates.

This is fixed in 1.11: submissions can always be resubmitted for processing. 
This is a temporary solution until FT supports retrieval of last modified date,
