+FIRST MAJOR PATCH AND QOL IMPROVEMENTS
+
+The main shinobi script has received its first external patch!
+
+It's getting just past 10PM on this stormy Sunday night, but I have an 
+urge to share this post now instead of waiting for next week. 
+Afterwards I'll be going to bed before the start of a new week.
+
+If you've been following along, you might have noticed a pretty solid 
+patch has been added to the core shinobi script project:
+
+https://git.sr.ht/~tdarb/shinobi-script
+
+Special shout out to Matthew Graybosch[0] for putting together these 
+improvements and working towards a more consistent experience across 
+all RSS readers.
+
+
+THE CHANGES AT A GLANCE
+-----------------------
+
+In a nutshell:
+
+- text inside the CDATA tag is now wrapped with <pre> tags
+- <pre> tag has inline CSS to specify reasonable wrapping
+- tail command to retrieve post text now pipes into sed to escape HTML 
+tags.
+- added test posts
+- added makefile for local testing
+
+Please take a look at the changes directly in the official patch 
+notes[1]. Take notice of some of the new folders/files included with 
+the default project. You'll also see updated instructions in the README 
+to help with testing and local development.
+
+
+QUALITY OF LIFE
+---------------
+
+In addition to the first major patch, I've included basic styling to 
+properly render the RSS feed directory in supported browsers. To see it 
+in action, simply check out:
+
+https://shinobi.website/feed.xml
+
+The styles are included in the new `rss.css` file of the shinobi 
+project. The current layout is taken from Len Falken's main 
+directory[2]. Feel free to change this to however you see fit! I've 
+kept them consistent with the remainder of the project, but there is 
+nothing stopping you from including things like XSLT.
+
+To reflect these changes, I've updated some of the details found in the 
+original "SIMPLE GUIDE FOR CREATING YOUR OWN SHINOBI.WEBSITE"[3]
+
+
+TESTING, TESTING, TESTING
+-------------------------
+
+I'm trying my best to test every RSS reader available to me. My main 
+machine is running macOS and my phone iOS, thus making me somewhat 
+limited in my access to other OS-specific RSS applications. Even still, 
+I've added a growing list to the project README documenting readers 
+that have been tested, along with their support "grade". Feel free to 
+include your own testing in tickets or patches on your own!
+
+That is really all there is to say. Enjoy your week!
