Hector, this seems rather interesting, could this be seen on the public side in

a read only to create interest in signing up those who's eye is catches?

Yes, I added a DUMMY user account called "ANONYMOUS RSS".

Similar to the ANONYMOUS FTP, for anonmous FTP sessions, ANONYMOUS RSS can
be used to scan the account's accessible areas you define to produce a result.

I put a beta version in the Developer's Corner, see the "Beta Applications" option.

If my wife likes it and doesn't need help to use it, then I think it is a pretty good and useful feature people will like :-)

Oh I forgot:

I also added a public anonymous access (no login required) concept to it
so that you can show "recent messages" in public conference areas.

I have HTML-RECENTMAIL.WCX setup for my special "ANONYMOUS RSS" account
to join/read most of the WINSERVER support forums.

You can add this URL to your web site or bookmark in your browser:

http://www.winserver.com/public/code/html-recentmail.wcx

and this will be a very quick way to see if there are any new messages
or discussions in the public mail forums. To actually read a message,
you would have to login when your click an message item.

NOTE:

HTML-RECENTMAIL.WCX is currently generating a canned HTML display. I
was going to add a simple switch to it, like RSS=1, to create RSS
output. That would you to add this URL as a RSS FEED to your Browser or
Mail reader, like Thunderbird.

But we are going to use a new way called REST to get the Wildcat! WEB
2.0 API services. I'm going to merge HTML-RECENTMAIL.WCX into the new
WCRPC system.

For example, right now we have a RSS feed for getting the New Files
since X days, like so:

http://www.winserver.com/public/code/html-wcrpc?cmd=rpcNewFiles&days=180

That will scan the file areas for the last 180 days. It uses a new REST
- like syntax to pass the "Action" and arguments to a new HTML-WCRPC.WCX handler.

Since the above URL is a public request, this also uses the special
account "ANONYMOUS RSS" to define the accessible file areas which it can
scan.

If you want to scan secured file areas for your security access at winserver.com, then remove the /public/ part:

http://www.winserver.com/code/html-wcrpc?cmd=rpcNewFiles&days=180

and that will force a login (authentication) prompt for our site.

Check it all out and let us know what you think or if you have any comments.

Thanks

Hector, I tried it and it looks promising, however I would like to see a read public option without signing in.
