[ImageJ-devel] Code snippet verification script

[Stephan Saalfeld]

Hi Steffi,

the Wiki offers a recent-change feed:

http://pacific.mpi-cbg.de/wiki/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&feed=rss

Don't be old-school and subscribe it in your hopefully feed-capable
e-mail client (otherwise install the required plugin ;)).  The result
would be exactly as desired, you get a `message' when something was
changed.  Beautiful and extremely useful---and without the need to send
e-mails around.

Cheers,
Stephan
