Kia ora I thought I might check in with the list on this one, in case some people here might find it useful. For some time now -- since October 2002, I think -- I've had my server quietly compile an RSS feed of this mailing list each week.

If you haven't come acesss RSS/RDF files before, there's more info at http://www.syndic8.com/ -- possible uses for RSS are at http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/BottomFeeder/ (a Windows program that doesn't even need a web browser to read the links, IIRC) and http://www.ihug.co.nz/ (see the news headlines). Currently I've only set them to be updated weekly on Sundays as I did intend it as a private experiment with a script I adapted, but if people find it useful, I don't see a problem with upping the refreshes to something more useful, like daily. (I also need to get around to releasing the mods I made to that script, which scrapes the postings at the list archive.) I'm not actually a librarian, but Koha sounds like a good project. Keep up the work, people...
