right. I don't like the current solution either ;-) that's why I thought
about the diff aproach...

It's in. I changed the format of the returned array a little bit. If any
plugin uses the getRecent function it needs some adjustment. Esther?
Chris? Do we have plugin's relying on getRecent? I think so but I'm not
sure.

Too late. It's in already. But I don't think it will make any trouble -
AFAIK most aggregators don't do validation anyway - as long as the XML
compliance is given we should on the safe side.

I'm aware of the various non-Wiki uses and try not to hinder them, but I
have to keep an eye on the feature-creep.
To all of you reading: all things mentioned yesterday are in now. Please
do some last testing. I will release tomorrow evening.
