My only concern about an RSS feed _instead_ of the mailing list is that
sometimes overnight, KDE or GNOME move and there is several hundred
messages. So unless the feed it is serving is very large, I would be
bound to miss some. The same thing is annoying me with flyspray (10
latest bugs) although there is probably a way around that...
