LWN syndication

There are currently three ways to get LWN's headlines in a form suitable for inclusion on another page:

• LWN headlines are available in the RDF Site Summary (RSS) format at http://lwn.net/headlines/rss. This is an XML-based format which contains quite a bit of information.

• The headlines are available as a collection of links, one per line, at http://lwn.net/headlines/html. This file can be included directly, or preprocessed prior to use as your site's needs dictate. All of the current LWN daily headlines are found in this file.

• Finally, the headlines are available as a simple delimited text file at http://lwn.net/headlines/text. Successive entries are separated by a line containing only '&&'. There are three lines (currently) in each entry containing the headline text, the URL, and the category and date, respectively.

• New: there is now a separate feed for recently-posted comments at http://lwn.net/headlines/Comments.

For the sake of our server bandwidth, please do not load the headlines more than, say, once every fifteen minutes.
