History of RSSPackage
Version 5

Where id is the id of the rss feed (can be found on the admin page) and max is the number of items to display. There is an example in the Wiki plugin help, which you can see when editing a wiki page. The layout module accepts multiple feeds in one, so that if you would like to mix items from different feeds and have them displayed by most recently posted, you can! Just pass in more values to the id param, for example id=1,2,4
As of bitweaver version R2, the RSS Package uses SimplePie library to process feeds.
