        Updates 06AUG10 

          Data feeds - Combat & Other

          For you data-junkie-number-crunchers out there, combat reports (via ingame mail) now have an 'XML' link at the bottom which takes you directly to a nicely-formatted XML file for the combat, with lots of summarised data about what just happened, where and when. 

 We will be extending this "one-off" report system out to include blanket-permission, revokable, Combat API keys for players - so once someone (me looks meaningfully at a few of the more public-spirited tech-savvy players) writes a public killboard application we'll be *very* good to go! 

 Please note that this XML Combat data is a trial system, so if you spot any anomalies in the data, please let us know via a Petition. We think it's entirely accurate, but it's worth keeping an eye out for strange results. 

 There are also a couple of new 24hr-refreshed data feeds for Alliance and Player Data available as well.
