The current method of retrieving updates involves the MediaWiki extension OAIRepository and the OAI-PMH protocol. Since the deployment of the extension is supposed to be phased out soon, we need a replacement. Our idea is to use the protocol PubSubHubbub instead, which uses a pushing mechanism, instead of requiring subscribers to use polling.
