Description: There doesn't seem to be an RSS feed for GBIF news (http://www.gbif.org/newsroom/) and the old one for http://www.gbif.org (still accessible at http://imsgbif.gbif.org/rss.xml was last updated on October 2nd, a few days before the launch of the new portal.

Are there plans to add RSS back (would be much appreciated) and are there any channels in the meantime to be kept updated of all GBIF news?

Comment: [~cvizitiu@gbif.org] could you remind me of the status of the RSS feed on GBIF news? I thought it was possible to get a feed already but there does not seem to be a button to get it.

An RSS feed is implemented and to be verified:
http://www.gbif-uat.org/newsroom/news

A note being, when in the region-filtered view of news, the RSS feed is also filtered. This is hinted by the title. So when the title says 'GBIF news about Europe', the RSS feed is also about Europe.
