Description Ian Skerrett CLA 2008-04-18 09:24:30 EDT 
The Platform team should start an RSS feed that includes a pointer to each build produced by the Eclipse project, similar to what is found on http://kernel.org/.

This would allow people who want to live on the bleeding edge to follow the builds.

Excellent.  It might also be a good idea to promote it on the project pages, so people know it exists.

I think it is a good idea for all projects but not sure if it is a requirement.
