That is actually incorrect. Slash has been doing RSS for sometime now,
both publishing in the format and taking data from other sites via RSS. 
What is unique has been the fact that we have made all information
in the site available via RSS. Just not headlines, but personal
journals,
submissions, problem tracking... pretty much anything in the database.
