That seems like a solid idea.

Though seems to depend on people actually using RSS feed readers.

That said, that immediately made me think of the idea of having a website that aggregates BBSs that are posting these things, and creates a table of BBS statuses, that seems like it might be neat.

Though still not sure on actual use case, other than, "someone tries to call a BBS they'd expect to work. It doesn't, so they check the BBS status list."

Regardless, it does seem like there might be something there that doesn't take a _huge_ amount of work to get going.
