 {{{

 I just stumbled across this after an #rdfig discussion about adding RSS
 support to Mailman, the popular list management and HTML archiving
 package.
 Turns out the patch exists already (but wasn't intergrated yet).

 It took me less than 10 minutes to patch my Mailman installation and
 rebuild the archives for rdfweb-dev. I now have
 http://rdfweb.org/pipermail/rdfweb-dev/rss.xml generated automatically.

 See http://rdfig.xmlhack.com/2003/02/09/2003-02-09.html#1044813421.381747
 for the (trivial to apply) patch and related info. Just cd into the
 Mailman/Archiver/ directory and do 'patch < ~danbri/rss.patch' or
 whatever,
 then re-run bin/arch on your archives.

 The markup exported is fairly basic, but sets things up nicely for
 future extensions -- you could add in richer descriptions of the mailing
 lists fairly easily, though I'm not sure how best one would hook such
 information up to Mailman's www-based frontend.

 It would be awesome to be able to subscribe to a specific list via RSS;
 after that, it would also be neat to be able to subscribe via RSS to all
 public lists on a domain, to mail from a specific user, or to mail to a
 list on a specific "topic"/thread.

 I'm taking this idea from
 http://wiki.mailman.psf.io/DEV/Mailman%203.0?action=diff&rev2=30&rev1=28
 -- a TODO/wishlist for the Mailman 3.x series.
