Sorry, haven't tested the new version yet. I've hammer-out a proof of concept RSS builder. It uses the DailyLogs and for now, just makes an entry for each line and makes that line a title.

Questions:
-Is this something that will be useful?
-If we want to implement this can failure info be added as part of these reports?
-Links are required in RSS feeds... what would these items link to?

Anyway, let me know and I can do some work on limiting the number of days that are included in the RSS and using the data at hand in a better way.

Code:

#!/bin/sh

reportDIR="/home/mythtv/mythicalLibrarian/DailyReport/"
rssFile="/var/www/mythical-rss/rss.xml"

#Setup the rss file
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<rss version="2.0">

<channel>
  <title>Myhtical Librarian</title>
  <link>http://xbmc.org</link>
  <description>Mythical Library Daily Report Information</description>' > $rssFile

for thisReport in $(ls -l $reportDIR | awk '{print $8}')
do
    echo "$(awk '{ print "  <item>\n    <title>" $0 "</title>\n    <link>http://xbmc.org</link>\n    <description>Put description here</description>\n  </item>"}' $reportDIR/$thisReport)" >> $rssFile
done
echo '</channel>

</rss>' >> $rssFile

Here's part of a sample output. Please note that I didn't to anything to include or control chronology but that's pretty easy to add later.

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<rss version="2.0">

<channel>
  <title>Myhtical Librarian</title>
  <link>http://xbmc.org</link>
