RSS is a dialect of XML used for web content syndication. The RSS file 
specifies the site & its URL, along with a list of "headline" items & 
their respective URLs. In this case, the "headlines" represent the 25 
most recent posts to each of the above mailing lists. Using an 
appropriate script to parse the XML, these headlines can be inserted 
into any webpage.

These RSS files were produced using a "scraper" script that identifies & 
extracts "headlines" from html. For more about RSS newsfeeds, consult 
http://backend.userland.com/rss or  http://www.syndic8.com/documents.php

Examples of headline listings taken from some of the above newsfeeds are

A simple Perl script (using the non-standard RSS::Lite module) is 
available for review at
