Thanks Boris for the rss URL - works well.

Mikel: Call me old-fashioned but I'd like it to be a blog and it's not if
it doesn't have comments below the update texts, an RSS feed to subscribe
to and preferably I'd also like to see an option to subscribe to either all
HOT updates or updates from one category (or in our terms Project) by
email. And yea, some post to this or that social media site wouldn't hurt
either -- but people are quite good copy-pasting a URL, I think.

So my wishlist is:
* comments for each update
* RSS visible
* email subscription either to all or per Project updates would be neat.

... and possibility to view all updates in each Project with some sort of
http://hot.osm.org/updates/Project/X URL or something.

Mikel (or anyone): Have you stumbled across a page at SotM-US that would
link the sessions in the schedule with presentation slides or
videos/streams of the presenations, btw?

Cheers,
-Jaakko
