[wp-forums] RSS Feeds return error for new plugins

[Christopher Ross]

Hope this is the right list (if not ... where?) but I've been running into a problem with RSS feeds for new plugins and I'm hoping somebody can offer some advice.

When I add a new plugin to http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ I like to also add an RSS feed to my reader so that I can be notified whenever a question or comment is posted. The problem is, new plugins such as http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/crossslide-jquery-plugin-for-wordpress/ don't generate an RSS page for their forums until somebody actually posts a question.

For example http://wordpress.org/support/rss/tags/crossslide-jquery-plugin-for-wordpress returns a blank page at the moment, where as feed://wordpress.org/support/rss/tags/wordpresscom-stats-smiley-remover generates a valid RSS because I created a post to force it.

I understand the reason it's returning a blank page (there is no content) but is it possible to force the tag page to return a valid RSS result for new plugins? I'd be happy to donate my time to the project to make it happen.
