Could it be possible to have an RSS-feed of the news at http://wikimediafoundation.org/ ?

Hi,
I've been doing something like that for a while now:
http://jeays.net/wikipedia/announcements.xml
Here's my original post to the list:
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2003-September/006203.html
There's a menu page with a couple of notes at
Feed preview from bloglines.com
http://www.bloglines.com/preview?siteid=49622
I can provide the perl script if anyone's interested or wants to host it on the server. Obviously, glitches occur from time to time (in practice, quite infrequently, maybe once a month, and I try to fix it as soon as I can)

Great! Thank you very much! I've created a LiveJournal syndicated account for it: http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=wikipedia_news
However, I have one tiny little complaint ;-) Take the second most recent entry. It reads:
You may have noticed a "Disclaimers" link at the bottom of article pages. It will therefore no longer be necessary to have manually added links to disclaimer pages. Polish Wikipedia has reached 19,000 articles.
It seems weird how it jumps from the disclaimers to the Polish Wikipedia article count. I think you should either insert <p> tags, or perhaps even better: use <ul><li> ... </li><li> ... </li></ul> like on the actual accouncements page. :-)
