Just wondering… Seems like there hasn’t been much “news” lately.
I’d like it if we could make a bot that posted content from something like an RSS feed into a dedicated topic. RSS - Wikipedia
https://www.reddit.com/r/digitalminimalism/comments/1186oqh/why_does_no_one_talk_about_rss_readers/
Comparison of feed aggregators - Wikipedia
Maybe @Lukas or @tallakt could look into something like this: Configure the Discourse RSS Polling Plugin - admins - Discourse Meta This seems to talk about creating a new topic for every new item, maybe it can post to a dedicated topic instead.
I am actually using a RSS feed for this forum. But I seem to be unable to see the feed url on my RSS reader. But the forum does support RSS
I am talking about the other way around. You’d add sites and search queries and twitter users and so on to the plugin that would then post to the forum, if I understand you correctly.

Kitemill claims a new record of 5hours of continuous flight. I posted on the forum last year our results of 132 continuous flight hours…

Here is their own statement, which has more info and context: Kitemill Breaking Records for Automatic Operation It talks about a new endurance record for its own system, not AWE in general.
The article I linked in my previous comment has the handwavy Kitemill’s KM1 pilot system recently covered more than 500km during five hours of continuous operation, setting what is claimed to be a new record for AWE, which is bad writing as they should include a source of that claim, but still is probably true. Your system is stationary so that is a different record, and I don’t know what records SkySails set for example.
