Description

I think it would be nice to generate RSS feeds for world-readable Matrix rooms, ideally with a simple method of determining the URL from the Matrix room ID (e.g. by appending .rss to the end).

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reading the repository structure and locating how public Matrix room history is fetched and how URLs are routed. Done means world-readable rooms have a stable RSS URL derived from the room ID and the feed exposes their history.
