appropiate)

Probably yes, but that needs some changes. There is currently a dsa.rdf.in
in the WML sources which includes:
<: rdf_item_list ( $(CUR_YEAR), '6', '$(ENGLISHDIR)/security', 'dsa-\d+'); :>
and:
<:= get_recent_list ( $(CUR_YEAR), '6', '$(ENGLISHDIR)/security', 'rdf', 'dsa-\d+' ); :>

It would be a matter of changing the '6' to '0' in a new file
(dsa-full.rdf.in?)
