[Design] RSS in Cosmo for event change notification

[Mimi Yin]

Hi Alec, newly synced events as in newly ADDED events or newly EDITED  
events or BOTH?

I think the Editor of the shared item needs to be able to decide when  
to actively PING fellow Sharees of changes, because they are the only  
ones that know:
a) If the changes were significant
b) Significant for whom

If the Editor needs to focus a Sharee's attention on a shared item,  
that shared item should show up in the NOW section of the Dashboard,  
just like New email would. In other words, the item is auto-triaged  
to go into your NOW section.

If the Editor doesn't want to bother a Sharee, the shared item needs  
to show that it has been changed...and needs to be easily accessible  
by the Sharee from either:
a) An Activity Log and/or
b) Any collections the item belongs to

We do this today with the wiki. If I make a significant change to a  
wiki page or create a new page that is ready to be reviewed, I will  
send email to the relevant people, alerting them to go check it out.  
However, anyone can view the Changes feed to look at what's been  
recently edited. However, just looking at the Changes feed doesn't  
tell you whether YOU need to read/review or act on any of the  
changes. Only the editor of the wiki page can tell you that.
