Hi!

We updated the DC a bit.

Member's answers

With this release, you can see the answers on the member's page too.

E.g. see the answers by Timothy Leavitt. 

Post updates don't move the post to top

So we can fix the tags, spelling and make other updates to the post and it would not be moved to top anymore. 

Now only new answers and comments move the post to the top of the feed.

RSS and other bug fixes

Now bugs for RSS feeds are fixed.

Also, Votes renamed to Rating and has the color indication now. Green means good!

Stay tuned for the next DC improvements!

Here are a few other changes and updates coming in this release.

1. When making a new post, the Related Topics (tagging) is now required. We are doing this because we want to add more features to the site and need the content organized by tag for more granular navigation, cross-linking and page customization. We will create a posting in Developer Community Feedback so that tags can be discussed and we'd be happy to adjust what tags are available now.
