Refer to all modules using their /dist/Foo/ path instead of via
the mishmash of old author path, new author path, module documentation,
etc.

Serialize your RSS as JavaScript.
Perhaps you use XML::RSS to generate RSS for consumption by RSS parsers.
Perhaps you also get requests for how to use the RSS feed by people who
have no idea how to parse XML, or write Perl programs for that matter.
Enter XML::RSS::JavaScript, a simle subclass of XML::RSS which writes your
RSS feed as a sequence of JavaScript print statements. This means you
can then write the JavaScript to disk, and a users HTML can simple
include it like so:
<script language="JavaScript" src="/myfeed.js"></script>
What's more the javascript emits HTML that can be fully styled with
CSS. See the CSS examples included with the distribution in the css directory.
