I'm new to this community, but all the traffic I'm seeing suggests a market for "PmWiki for Dummies" !!!! <smile>  For sure, these "summative" pages that pull together diverse aspects of a topic like RSS are valuable. Thanks for carrying on the conversation.

This definitely sounds like something that should be added to be one of 
the cookbook recipes (or a recipe on its own).

PS. Since I haven't used RSS, I have no clue whatsoever which recipe it'd 
be useful to add it to. Or perhaps it's time to start a page called
	PmWiki.RSS

which describes things like this?
