https://planet.gnu.org/ carries the news feed for all Savannah
projects.  In addition to other postings.  Is that to which you are
referring?  That was dropped for a while after a previous migration in
July 2016 but was then brought back (Thanks Sylvain!) in March 2018.
It provides RSS and other feeds from that location.

I am unaware of any previous news feed directly from Savannah itself.
There are individual projects which have their own news feed.  But
I don't know a lot about a lot of things so if you have an example
please point me to it. :-)

I'll use this message to ask users about something else I have been
thinking about and it is on this topic.

In the time I have been working with Savannah the front page news feed
has only ever been about Savannah itself.  Which means when nothing is
happening the front page is rather boring.  And when things are
happening it is almost always bad news!  But it is a feature of the
software forge to approve project news to the front page.  And I think
that might also send the news to this mailing list since I think all
news posted to the front page is also sent here too.

Is this something that Savannah users would like to see?  To send
appropriate and curated news from individual projects to the front
page and also to this mailing list?

Bob
