To answer your question the best I can: 1. As this is an experiment (in Reuters Labs) we are playing around with caching times for the content feeds (~5 mins today!) - it is as much about scaling as anything else and that the different types of feeds and content will determine how long they are cached for. For instance the Information Feeds change less frequently while the Content Feeds change much more often. 2. In coming releases there will be the ability to control your output better, which could include the ability to send in the last article ID and/or Date and Time (or range) so that you can receive in your response only what has been updated since your last call. 3. answered in 1. 4. As the terms and conditions state, this is strictly for non-commercial purposes - unless otherwise agreed by us. If someone builds a service they think could become commercially viable we will be very happy to talk to them about opportunities as well as our professional syndication feeds. Thanks Vineet.
