Backends RSS v1.1 Nick Weisser 15 May 2008

I modified the whats_new feed in order to not display a single random product, but all latest products just as on the products_new.php page.

Moreover, I've changed the RSS version from 0.91 to 2.0 and added/changed a couple of fields in order to validate against the W3C RSS validator.

Finally, I've added 2 rewrite rules to the .htaccess file in order to make the feeds available with XML extension, i.e. whats_new.xml and categories.xml

Note: If you want browsers to auto-detect your feed, you have to add a link tag to your html head section:

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS Feed" href="whats_new.xml">

Todo: Insert ISO-639 language code correctly
Possible new features: Provide an admin feed for new orders and new customers
