      4  Several of the Trac modules support content syndication using the RSS (Really Simple Syndication) XML format. 
      5  Using the RSS subscription feature in Trac, you can easily monitor progress of the project, a set of issues or even changes to a single file . 
      6   
      7  Trac supports RSS feeds in: 
      8   
      9   * TracTimeline --  Use the RSS feed to '''subscribe to project events'''.[[br]]Monitor overall project progress in your favorite RSS reader. 
      10   * TracReports -- Allows syndication of report results.[[br]]Be notified about important and relevant issue tickets. 
      11   * TracBrowser -- Syndication of file changes.[[br]]Stay up to date with changes to a specific file.

      13  == How to access RSS data == 
      14  Anywhere in Trac where RSS is available, you should find a small orange 'XML' icon, typically placed at the bottom of the page. Clicking the icon will access the RSS feed for that specific resource. 
      15   
      16  '''Note:''' Different modules provide different data in their RSS feeds. Usually, the syndicated information corresponds to the current view. For example, if you click the RSS link on a report page, the feed will be based on that report. It might be explained by thinking of the RSS feeds as an ''alternate view of the data currently displayed''.
