Confirmed. The News scope (4.9.0) Technology department does not show BBC technology news: it shows headlines news.

The bug introduced in rev 164 is that the required scopeLocalId_childDept_m map is ONLY getting set when the child scope is configured to use LANGCODE (like euronews does). BBC does not, therefore the child scope displays its default content, which is headlines, not technology.

Here's the key part of the news scope technology declaration:

         {
            "category":
            {
                "id": "technology",
                "department": "dept-technology",
... "scopes":
                [
                    {
                        "id": "com.canonical.scopes.euronews_euronews",
                        "local_id": "euronews-tech",
                        "child_department": "http://www.euronews.com/_partners/ubuntu/scitech_LANGCODE.xml"
                    },
                    {
                        "id": "com.canonical.scopes.bbc_bbc",
                        "local_id": "bbc-technology",
                        "child_department": "http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/technology/rss.xml"
                    }
                ],
... },

If interested, search this for "CHDEPT": http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~scope-aggregator/scope-aggregator/vivid-trunk/revision/165

Fix forthcoming.
