This is because the nature of a wiki means that discussions are scattered all over the site, as people discuss in discussion pages about the given topic - and so they should. The consequence of this, however, is that one has a choice (in regard to RSS feeds) of having too much or too little. Too little, if one only feeds on news/todo/bugs/forum, since one misses out on discussions elsewhere. Too much, because the only other option appears to be subscribing to recentchanges, which will give one *everything*, whether it is relevant or not. +>>Unfortunately, I'm not really sure what the best solution is for this problem. + +>> For those who might be interested, I've added two RSS feeds to <http://www.dreamwidth.org>: ikiwiki_news and ikiwiki_recent. +>>--[[KathrynAndersen]] |
