 All of them seem to only contain title, date and link, no content.

 I would also suggest to consider switching from RSS to ATOM, as (at least
 in the ancient version used on NetBSD.org) some still popular modern
 browsers from a company well known for a non free operating system still
 can not display this feed.

 Ok, I understand what you mean.  I though the OP pointed out that the
 feeds were empty, which they are actually not...

 Not sure if having feeds with such low frequency as here is desireable
 at all, though.

      Why does the frequency matter?  The only question that matters
 is:  are they being used?  And, I believe the answer is yes (I do know
 one person that uses them directly).  Also, the pkgsrc-changes isn't
 low frequency.
