The only thing i see missing from the RSS is perhaps a group subject<br>prefix on the messages. I subscirbed to all my groups, and now i can't<br>easily tell which group a message is from. Could message subjects be<br>prefixed with group name? or a short group name? like [New York] for the
<br>NY dug?</blockquote><div><br>No. This is not how RSS works -- we shouldn't be trying to duplicate email. And it actually breaks all sorts of other RSS tools -- the title should be the title of the source article, not pre-pended with extra information.
<br><br>We *might* want to inject a <category> or other element that includes the group name, but again, I doubt most peoples' feed reader does anything with that.<br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Or perhaps instead of giving me one combined feed, whne i subscribe to<br>my groups feed, i could be given an opml of all the individual rss feeds?</blockquote><div><br>You do, of course, have the choice to subscribe to the feeds individually. The OPML aspect is interesting...maybe linked from the "my groups" block.
