I think he means there is no content in the rdf feed. Below is an extract from the feed:

<item>
<title>KDE Commit-Digest for 30th December 2007</title>
<link>http://dot.kde.org/1199338440/</link>
</item>
<item>

You're right that it works in Akregator (does that fetch the content from the URL?), but in other places e.g. Google /ig homepage the feed shows up as only links with no content. That means the only way to read the summary is to come to the dot. No biggie, but unusual.

My mistake, Akregator is using a different feed. It is the dotkdeorg.rdf which is contentless, while the updates.rdf feed contains the content. Hope that helps.
