As this affects all Kindle 3 users, may I suggest the following temporary workaround?

Disable generation of periodical (instead generate a e-book) using the Kindle profile

It turns out to be changing one line in the implementation of the following function of calibre.web.feeds.news
Code:
def create_opf(self, feeds, dir=None):
Turn the line
Code:
mi.publication_type = 'periodical:'+self.publication_type+':'+self.short_title()
to
Code:
mi.publication_type = self.publication_type+':'+self.short_title()
Then we do not need to change any existing recipe to cater for Kindle 3. Currently I have to do it in the recipe-level (See here for an example).

What do you think?
