## status

###

The HTTP status code that was returned by the web server when the feed was fetched.

If the feed was redirected from its original URL, `status` will contain the redirect status code, not the final status code.

If `status` is `301`, the feed was permanently redirected to a new URL. Clients should update their address book to request the new URL from now on.

If `status` is `410`, the feed is gone. Clients should stop polling the feed.

`status` will only be present if the feed was retrieved from a web server. If the feed was parsed from a local file or from a string in memory, `status` will not be present.
