Hi,
I hope this is the appropriate place for me to pose this question.
I've noticed there is a news feed available for the main stories. Are there any plans to do something similar for, say sports stories, or would anyone take issue with me doing such a thing myself (and sharing it with others, of course!)
Longer term is there anyone looking on a way produce categorised news feeds?
Thanks, Andrew.

GWicke is in the process of developing an RSS feed system based on categories. There is currently an experimental version of this system in place, and as you might expect it has a few issues and likely a few bugs. You can test this system on en.Wikinews at:
http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Category:Sports?feed=rss
This system works in the following way: the latest 50 articles added to the category will be returned. In the future it will probably become more featured, such as getting just the latest articles and allowing multi-category sorts (for example, sports articles from Europe, or only sports articles from Brazil.)
Realize that this is an experimental system; it may not be there tomorrow, or it may be changed in how it works, what it returns, and so on.
