I'm building a news analysis system and I might be using Feeds and Open Calais. The problem I have is that many RSS feeds only publish a title or a teaser but we need the full article. There are many plugins available for feeds but so far I haven't seen any that can do that. Has anyone found a solution to grab the full story out of an RSS feed that only publishes a part of it?

found an alternative
For anyone interested, fivefilters.org have developed something quite cool. I run their program as a service outside Drupal and it extract full articles out of any RSS. You may tried it at http://fivefilters.org/content-only/. The results are great!
Please don't use Drupal community to promote your website
That's a paid service, and not a good one that you have posted. Drupal community is one of the greatest communities around; using it to promote your service is totally wrong.
not my website, not my service
I'm not promoting my service. I'm not related to this group in any way. I would not promote any kind of proprietary software on Drupal (or anywhere else!). "Full-text-RSS" from Fivefilters.org is free software as in free speech (AGPL version 3). They even allow you download an earlier version of their source for free, as in free beer (http://code.fivefilters.org/p/full-text-rss/source/tree/master/)
If you want to download their latest package and install it on your server, they do charge 20 euros but you get the full source code.
Anyway, for us this turned out to be a great solution. I'm sorry my post might have looked like if I was promoting my own stuff. That's the last thing I would want to do on this forum.
