Re: RSS for public queries ...

Hi Hussayn,

yeah you are right. I mentioned this some time before, but time, the 
lack of some co workers (money), were against this approach, I am sorry. 
Currently I am working for an internal enhancement of the xmlrpc-api. 
Maybe we can come together  for some points, because the issue seems 
nearly the same for me: running some queries into scarab from outside world.

cheers
Johannes
