Description

The Link URL provided in the changes.rss [1] feed is created in changes-to-rss.xsl using the variable changes-url, this is configured using:

<xsl:variable name="changes-url" select="concat(../skinconfig/project-url, 'changes.html')"/>

If using the Dispatcher there is no skinconfig and therefore no value is set for changes-url.

The same problem occurs in the Forrest website, even though it does not use the dispatcher.
