Enabling RSS Feed In Internal Site

http://sharepoint.microsoft.com/blogs/GetThePoint/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=165

To use RSS Feeds with lists and libraries, first, make sure RSS Feeds are enabled for your site, and then enable the feed for the list or library. To do this:
1. Click the Site Actions menu on your site, and then click Site Settings (if you don’t see a Site Actions menu, then you may not permissions to the site. Ask your site administrator for help).
2. Click RSS under Site Administration.
3. Make sure the Allow RSS Feeds in this site checkbox is checked.
4. Next, open the list or library for which you want to share an RSS feed.
5. Click Settings, and then click List Settings or Library Settings.
6. Under Communications, click RSS Settings.
7. Make sure that Yes is chosen for Allow RSS for this list.
8. Fill in a title, description, and even an URL to an image to appear in the RSS feed if you like. You can also choose the columns from the list or library you want to display in the RSS Feed. For example, you can choose to include the Body column of an Announcements list.
9. When you’re done, click OK.

Now for the fun part: go back to your list, click Actions, and then click View RSS Feed. There’s your feed! Copy the link from your address bar and start sharing with your friends and colleagues. If they’re interested in getting regular updates, they can click the link to subscribe that’s included in the feed.

Default Custom Action Locations and IDs

The following table shows the locations, custom action group IDs and, custom action IDs that are used in the CustomAction and CustomActionGroup elements of custom actions that are installed by default in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0.

Each location value that is listed in the table corresponds to the Location attribute of CustomAction, each group ID corresponds to the GroupId attribute of CustomAction or to the Id attribute of CustomActionGroup, and each custom action ID corresponds to Id attribute of CustomAction.

You can create a Feature that implements the HideCustomAction element to hide any default custom action that is identified in the table.
