Change 10 on 2003/02/26 by hjh@p4rss 'Doc on RSS 0.91 vs 1.0, and cos'
Change 9 on 2003/02/26 by hjh@p4rss 'Add a bit more doc. '
Change 8 on 2003/02/26 by hjh@p4rss 'Documentation and cosmetic chan'
...
to RSS 2.0 format.
Run p4rss from a cron job to generate the RSS periodically.
Because p4rss.py uses vanilla p4, user can modify its behaviour with
usual P4 environment variables.
Bugs
There is no support for caching and other advanced features.
