RE: [Rainbowportal-devel] Forums/wikis/blogs - err... that's community server isn't it?

RSS feeds works perfect now! Because the www.rainbowportal.org site have 
been updated with latest code you all can try it right now.

It works simple: just enter 
"http://www.rainbowportal.org/CommunityRSS.aspx?LT=tab" into SharpReader, or 
your favorite aggregator, and all public tabs are listed:
Home, Features, Support and Download. The last tab "Development" was not 
listed... I guess it's just a simple bug in the (my!) code.

I also tested with 
"http://www.rainbowportal.org/CommunityRSS.aspx?LT=Item&SS=FAQ". SS is 
shorthand for SearchString and all items that contains the word "FAQ" are 
listed (6 hits).

NOTE: With "LT=Item" you must always provide a searchstring, e.g.: 
"&SS=FAQ".

The documentation of the parameters to CommunityRSS.aspx have been on my 
todo list for more than an year... See ducumentation of ServiceItemList or 
read file ServiceHelper.cs

Cheers
Jakob
