I've been in touch with the author of the site and it looks
like a good first step will be to syndicate the Wiki's
"Recent Changes" page. This is a nicely structured page

Would it be possible to take the 15 most recent items (starting from the bottom), and to create RSS <items> like this:

<item>
  <title>InteractiveNYCMap</title>
  <link>http://.....</link>
  <description>September 17, 2001</description>
</item>
See http://www.newsisfree.com/sources/info/2418/ and
http://www.newsisfree.com/HPE/xml/feeds/18/2418.xml (for the RSS)

The date is the date at which the item is parsed so all items
have todays date. The feed is updated every three hours.
