I know this is a a non-standard question, but is there an place where I could point an RSS reader to determine if a new beta release is out? The timeline on svn does not have any markers... I may have just missed this somewhere so I thought I would ask.
Points 4.d, 4.e, 4.f, and 4.g if you wish to use easyddup.

Might be that sir IONK changed feed provider or something. Sorry for my lack of diligence, here's a quick snippet of their forum sig, lacking further cosmetic recreation:

I get an email from my router (by easyddup) for every new build telling me the new build #, my build # and how many builds behind I am this year. In the rare occurrence that a build is problematic and pulled, I'll know because the email's "builds behind" number will have decreased by one instead of increased by one.
I ended up writing a xpath scraper for the RSS reader essentially doing what the website service that IONK is using does.
@yoyoma2... I actually did not know that easyddup would send the notice... that is essentially what I wanted... I will have to look into it more
I was looking for a way to tell that there is an update without having to specifically look myself... the reason for the RSS feed was because I have it subscribed to other software releases and so it is a single place for me to go and find out, then do the research if I want to update or not, and email notification would do that same thing.
