Hi all

I apologise if this has been raised before, but I have not found it anywhere. in the boards.

I am wondering whether an RSS feed for news and announcements has been considered? I will regularly visit the site, but may not always check announcements and such, but I do use an RSS reader to follow other sites of interest.

If the site admins aren't sure as to how this could be possibly implemented, I would be happy to give them a hand.

I would love to know what others think as well.

I think it'd be better to have an RSS feed of the latest topics on the boards, then we could see what was happening from every one of them. However if people wanted RSS versions of all boards, then I'd support that but the Latest topics should naturally be first.

Your average zone user isn't going to use rss, so don't waste your time, remember were programming for lowest common dinominator of user hear.

Just because the average zoner might not use it doesn't mean that we wouldn't be able to implement it. Its not like it will get in their way of viewing the site is it? A simple RSS link is fine for those who might want to use it.
