Recent changes feed at osgeo web site

[jsanz]

Hi,

The ​recent changes webpage produces a feed that could be a useful tool for translators and webcom members to track what's going on at our website.

So I ask drupal administrators to publish that feed (I'm not asking to put a public link for it) or at least discuss it.

Hi Jorge, I've been thinking about this and not sure exactly what you are after. Just a publicly accessible page showing the results? You can access it already, right? Do you have a specific way of doing it that you have in mind?

If you are not logged, the recent changes page (​http://www.osgeo.org/recent_changes) is not available at all (and it's the same for the feed of course).

What I'm asking for is to let anonymous user access this page (I assume there's an specific permission on Drupal for this module we can switch) without publishing the menu item so the page link is not public but the resource is available to be used by any RSS reader (translators, admins, etc.).

This way we can access the updates of the OSGeo webpage available trough RSS, just in the same way the Timeline of the Trac is (​http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/timeline).

I think with the recent changes accesible, translators and anyone will know when an English (or whatever) page is modified and he can go to update their changes. At this time I have to manually access every page and check if there's any update since my last review. I'm not doing it at all :(

Okay, I got it working now. I had to enable permissions to anonymous to view revisions. I don't see any harm in letting public views to revision - does anyone else? The feed is available at: /recent_changes/feed Please test for me :)
