 A few pointers and I might be able to implement this myself. -- JamesWestby
 
-       I don't see any problem with the title, it's the same as the title
-       of the wiki page that the rss feed comes from, which can be set
-       using the meta plugin. There are no restrictions to one word or

-       Now, the description field currently defaults to the wiki name,
-       and that could indeed stand to be made configurable. Since the

-       descripion configurable by such parameter, with a fallback to the
-       wiki name. You'll need to modify rsspage.tmpl to use whatever new
-       template variable you define, that should be all.

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