setting up an rss feed of recent members?

In a kabissa spec there was a suggestion that one should be able to have a listing of the five most recent membership signups. I would like to implement something along those lines separately for memberships and donations. I image i do this with profiles at present until greater support is builtin for Drupal views.

Tips on documentation for documentation on this or how to do it would be great. I've previously used CiviEvent rss feeds.

TIA

I don't think you can do this with Profiles - we don't expose transactional records (contributions, memberships ...) to the Profiles search and listing feature-set (only contact records). So ...  I think you should be able to put together a pretty simple chunk of PHP which uses our APIs to "find the TOP N donations / memberships" by their ID (since they are auto-incremented). Then convert output to RSS (check the code which creates the CiviEvent RSS For a headstart).
