+= Using RSS with Trac =
+[[TracGuideToc]]
+
+Several of the Trac modules support content syndication using the RSS (Really Simple Syndication) XML format.
+Using the RSS subscription feature in Trac, you can easily monitor progress of the project, a set of issues or even changes to a single file.
+
+Trac supports RSS feeds in:
+
+ * TracTimeline —  Use the RSS feed to '''subscribe to project events'''.[[br]]Monitor overall project progress in your favorite RSS reader.
+ * TracTickets, TracReports, and TracQuery — Allows syndication of report and ticket query results.[[br]]Be notified about important and relevant issue tickets.
+ * TracBrowser and TracRevisionLog — Syndication of file changes.[[br]]Stay up to date with changes to a specific file or directory.
+
+== How to access RSS data ==
+Anywhere in Trac where RSS is available, you should find a small orange '''XML''' icon, typically placed at the bottom of the page. Clicking the icon will access the RSS feed for that specific resource.
+
+'''Note:''' Different modules provide different data in their RSS feeds. Usually, the syndicated information corresponds to the current view. For example, if you click the RSS link on a report page, the feed will be based on that report. It might be explained by thinking of the RSS feeds as an ''alternate view of the data currently displayed''.
