QuoteAllows people to link to Recent news and similar data. It is also recommended that you limit the size of recent posts/news because, when rss data is displayed in some clients, like Trillian, it is expected to be truncated.

To use it, you'll need this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
  <?xml version="1.0" ?>
  <smf:xml-feed xmlns:smf="http://www.simplemachines.org/" xmlns="http://www.simplemachines.org/xml/news/" xml:lang="en-US" />


I'm not really all that familiar with XML/RSS newsfeeds, so maybe someone else can explain it better...
