That are really bad news, because that webforum softwares are reaally not to use very easy for blind people :-(.

Is there a possebility to get the forum messages via RSS feed somehow?

As the title says: as we're moving to a new platform, the existing
mailing list integration with forums.slimdevices.com will soon be shut down.

Trust me: I'll be the first to miss this feature! But alas... we have to
move on. And maintaining both systems in parallel for the few of us has
become really cumbersome.

So... if you're subscribed to one of the lists on lists.slimdevices.com,
please create an account on forums.slimdevices.com instead. The mailing
list server will soon be shut down.

Thanks for your understanding!

I knew some would figure this out :-).

[mherger]

Yes, RSS seems to be available. How good it is, I don't know yet...

[gregklanderman]

how do you access/subscribe to the RSS feed?

[mherger]

There’s an RSS link at the top of the pages. That said it is rather useless to me, as it would only publish new threads, but no individual follow up postings.

Ahh I see the little orange glyph.. thanks Michael! But yeah if it's only new topic/thread notifications that is pretty useless.

This is really unfortunate, I enjoy keeping up even though I am not all that active for many years now. Generally I catch up on the emails for all the forums about once a month or so, which I can do very quickly in Gnus (emacs mail reader) but there's just no efficient way to keep up with the volume via web interface. Need to find some time to finish building some pcp players and clean up and submit some local patches to the server..
