Wiki:Changes to RSS extension
From Vermont Area Group of Unix Enthusiasts
These are changes to MW:Extension:RSS.
The following patch
- outputs a tighter, unordered ("bulleted") list instead of a definition list.
- decodes the XML entities so that they become HTML elements.
- strips HTML tags to give a text-only presentation of feeds.
