[consulting] Use of groups.drupal.org

[Gregory Heller]

The only thing i see missing from the RSS is perhaps a group subject
prefix on the messages.  I subscirbed to all my groups, and now i can't
easily tell which group a message is from.  Could message subjects be
prefixed with group name? or a short group name? like [New York] for the
NY dug?

Or perhaps instead of giving me one combined feed, whne i subscribe to
my groups feed, i could be given an opml of all the individual rss feeds?
