Up until a few weeks ago I was subscribed to an RSS feed from Jenkins which
gave clear indication of recent changes. That feed disappeared and the only
replacements I have found on Jenkins are sporadic and incomplete.

This, and its RSS, is currently only showing the latest version :-

http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/jenkins/view/All/job/netsurf/changes

This RSS feed seems to have stopped at #2451 :-

http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/jenkins/view/All/job/netsurf/BUILD=arm-unknown-riscos,BUILD_JS=json,CC=gcc,TARGET=riscos/rssAll

And this only has #2471 :-

http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/jenkins/job/netsurf/BUILD_JS=json,CC=gcc,HOST=arm-unknown-riscos,TARGET=riscos/rssAll

OTOH I have not actually seen any recent difficulties.
