So why the heck don't they just fill the frontpage with a bunch of tiny little HTML IFRAMEs, each containing an RSS feed, from each of the emu author's sites that the emu news site in question covers, listing the newest released version, with a hyperlink for the "changelog"/"whatsnew" file. Hey, the entire job of being a newsposter could be eliminated and automated! Then we wouldn't have to read about this jr-high drama act.

Maybe I'll make an "emunewsdrudgereport.com" site like that. Or maybe not. Feel free to use the idea though.
