that wasn't decided yet when I asked the question. I didn't know
docbook-website already supports rss.

fine. Is there some documentation about how to use rss feeds, other
than embedding the *whole* feed ? For example, how can I insert the headline
of the latest item into a given page ? The latest 5 items ? How can I generate
a 'news' page containing the latest n items (the full content, this time) ?
Etc.
