Mal, I know this is nitpicking, but could the link to the story in the rss feed be like
[code:1:e2dd77ab3e]http://www.terrypratchettbooks.org/post22842.html#22842[/code:1:e2dd77ab3e]
which leads directly to the latest post (found for example on the Message Board Latest Posts-area of the front page)

instead of
[code:1:e2dd77ab3e]http://www.terrypratchettbooks.org/fortopic19.html[/code:1:e2dd77ab3e]
which only leads to the topic that contains the latest post?

Edit: there are two reasons for this. The first reason is that if I click a story in my rss feed client it leads directly to the post. The second reason is that it enables rss feed clients to know if you've seen that post before, rather than that you've seen that topic before.
