Hi (again)

I checked gmane's RSS feed. They are provided with full text. So they
could be integrated in a CMS-MS page. There is a RSS module for CMS-MS
but  when rendering a text only feed, it's pretty ugly since all
formating is lost (see
http://procint-oxyd.net/ubuntu-be/index.php?page=annoucement). A
customized module is probably needed but shouldn't be that hard to do.
