rss feeds @ blogroll

blogroll upgraded to v1.4, and it now provides rss feeds for blog entries.

the link for IIIT:blogroll rss feeds is …/blogroll?rss. number of items in the feed can be contorlled with show=[integer], which is set to 6 by default. eg ?rss&show=3 will generate a feed of (10 oops!) 3 entries. **

** if you are checking for feeds frequently keep this number low, and otherwise high. ideally(heuriscically) : hourly(or less) check = 2 , daily check = 5, weekly check = 20. and if it confuse you, just forget about it.

code will me made available for download in a few days.

    oops!!
    i just noticed the mistake while reading in feed. but you catched it before i could correct it.
    actually i changed it to 3 from 10 after posting, and didnt edit the post carefully. (for the feeling that i didnt want users to encourage for high values).

    thanks.. anyway

    Only a default namespace can have an empty URI.
