I assume Atom is OK?  I don't know of any widely-used feed readers
which only do RSS without Atom support.  IIRC Atom is less ambiguous
and supports the in-reply-to extension.

That said, the Atom feeds generated by this RFC includes full
messages because that's the easiest way to tie into our existing
Atom generation code, so it's currently slower than the HTML
version which never retrieves git blobs.

I'm not sure if `hot' means it's the most read (not just replied-to);
but tracking read counts isn't something that scales on decentralized
systems.  So I'm naming it "active" instead...

Yeah, lots of the WWW and lei code works transparently between extindex
and regular inboxes:

extindex:
https://yhbt.net/lore/all/topics_new.atom
https://yhbt.net/lore/all/topics_active.atom
https://yhbt.net/lore/all/topics_new.html
https://yhbt.net/lore/all/topics_active.html

v2:
https://yhbt.net/lore/lkml/topics_new.atom
https://yhbt.net/lore/lkml/topics_active.atom
https://yhbt.net/lore/lkml/topics_new.html
https://yhbt.net/lore/lkml/topics_active.html

v1:
https://public-inbox.org/git/topics_new.atom
https://public-inbox.org/git/topics_active.atom
https://public-inbox.org/git/topics_new.html
https://public-inbox.org/git/topics_active.html

No worries.  master seems pretty stable these days and I should
really get my brain around getting cindex wired up to WWW to cut
a release...

Anyways, this replaces my prior RFC.  I've remembered to use
"GROUP BY" so the SQL is a bit faster than before.

-----------8<----------
Subject: [RFC v2] www: add topics_(new|active).(html|atom) endpoints

This seems like a easy (but WWW-specific) way to get recently
created and recently active topics as suggested by Konstantin.

To do this with Xapian will require a new columns and
reindexing; and I'm not sure if the current lei handling of
search results by dumping results to a format readable by common
MUAs would work well with this.  A new TUI may be required...
