Static Dump Export Page Question

Hi :)

Given that the SDE is updating more frequently with the new dev cycles, what would it take to get an RSS Feed specifically for this page?

I'm imagining an app that can listen on the feed and download the files automagically. Maybe even include integration for data transformation.

I think it'd be pretty cool to automate these static data dump updates.

I've only been playing around with the API and SDE for a few months in my free time, but I haven't seen or heard of an app that could do this. Also I think this would be a pretty fun exercise.

Any thoughts or concerns? Is something wrong with my core understanding?

Cheers

Its about 51mb compressed and when you put it in the database its about 500mb so issue there maybe?
As for RSS feed, i can see your point. I normally watch for when a new patch or release comes out and than check if the SDE has been updated.
Also i would like ccp to spend time on crest and the api for us more than this. Sorry to say.
