I can reach this URL from my browser, so I think this is transient.

I think that Transitous is in a better position than I am to determine which errors are transient. Could you perhaps add monitoring for how often a particular feed is unreachable, and only file these bugs after a certain threshold has passed Some possible thresholds:

• the feed was unavailable for a whole week, in which case it's probably gone away
• the feed was unavailable > 50% of the time over the course of a week, in which case we might not want to tolerate its flakiness

Yes, that would be nice. I'll try to look into it, not sure when yet though.

I'd want something like a json file stored in the cache to record things like this.

Maybe we can close this issue, but reopen one dedicated to Transient feed errors reporting ?
