[tei-council] Setting up read-only access to TEI Council list?

[Gabriel BODARD]

Agreed. Not sure I like the idea of duplicating the list in any of the 
various ways suggested. If we're setting people up to be able to receive 
but not post, why not just make them moderated members of the existing 
list? It seems counter-intuitive, but it is identical in every way to 
what is being suggested with the "outsiders" list.

Is there a technically easy way to set up an RSS feed from the archives? 
Easier than web-scraping, I mean, for which there must exist tools 
already...
