When submitting a website, along with a sitemap xml file, and using the meta tag option:
Your authentication logic looks for the exact string given, including the trailing slash. This is proper for XHTML pages, but is incorrect for HTML 4 ... which our pages (still) use. Not that big of a deal for us, but on your side, it ought to be a minor tweak to have the logic only check the name and content attribute values.
