+ikiwiki.info has upgraded to the not yet released ikiwiki 2.30. This
+version of ikiwiki drops support for subscribing to commit mail
+notifications for pages. The idea is that you can subscribe to the new
+[[RecentChanges]] feed instead. (Or create your own custom feed of only the
+changes you're interested in, and subscribe to that.)
+
+So if you were subscribed to mail notifications on here, you'll need to
+change how you keep track of changes. Please let me know if there are any
+missing features in the [[RecentChanges]] feeds.
+
+Statically building the RecentChanges also has performance implications,
+I'll keep an eye on [[server_speed]]..
