 We have an internal uptodate installation of trac 0.8.4 on Apache with
 mod_python.
 We have configured it to use authetification - the anonymous user cannot
 reach any resources - it is not listed in
 {{{
 list permissions
 }}}
 at all.
 When a person that has not authenticated tries ot use a RSS to read some
 part of trac, what trac generates back is the initial login page which is
 not in RSS feed format.

 I would suggest generating a page similar in content to the login page
 that says more or less '''You are not authenticated, go here <link>''' in
 RSS format (maybe changing the RSS feed title to "''Origirnal title'' +
 '''Not authenticated'''" or sth. similar). This way feeds will not be
 presumed to be broken by a RSS feed reader.
