1 There could be a better way of setting the title and description of the rss feeds. Perhaps
2 through the meta plugin, or extra options to the inline plugin.
4 At the moment The description is the same for all feeds from
5 a single wiki it seems, and the title is forced to be one word,
6 though I don't think it needs to be.
8 A few pointers and I might be able to implement this myself. -- JamesWestby

29 Apologies for the title thing. I tried it yesterday, and it onlt used the first word.
30 I must have done something wrong. I'll have a look at implementing the description.
