Slightly unorthodox (read: potentially stupid) - but how about making MWKN available through....Maemo Extras?

1) You install program A for 'subscribing' to the MWKN.
Could hopefully be something very small that basically just setup a defined folder on the mmc2 card, IRC client (see below) and how many generations of the MWKN to keep.

2) Every week it checks for updates to Program B - which in essence is just the content of the weekly MWKN. It downloads it into the folder and you're off to read it, click on links in it, participate.
Could contain built-in IRC chat, etc to make it even more interactive when a new edition comes out ("Monday is here, can't wait to download the new edition and jump into IRC about it"...all in one place).
The content could be presented more like a website than a regular RSS feed. (It could even include news/requests about events like voting for the Council, etc).

And...of course...
1) if these users that doesn't go to the forum, don't have Maemo Extras - and don't check for new additions to it they wouldn't know about this either - but in that case short of holding a piece of paper in front of their eyes I don't know how to inform them , and

2) An RSS feed is easier and available.

Juuust trying to think outside of the box..not saying its a good idea
