I do not think that qualifies as a solution.
But probably that's just me, old fashioned sys admin, that do not check all rss everyday.

Sorry, but that's how we do it. We don't really want to abuse the install process for documentation etc..

BTW: There is no need for RSS; you could also subscribe to the announce mailing list.
