+"""Point the Python Insider feed at https://blog.python.org/rss.xml.
+
+Python Insider moved from Blogger to GitHub Pages. The legacy Blogger
+feed path ``feeds/posts/default?alt=rss`` is still served as a
+compatibility copy, but it has no file extension so GitHub Pages sends
+it as ``application/octet-stream``, which makes Safari and other
+browsers download it instead of opening a feed reader. The blog's
+canonical feed is ``/rss.xml``, served as ``application/xml``.
+
+``update_blog_supernav`` looks up the Feed row by matching
+``settings.PYTHON_BLOG_FEED_URL`` exactly, so the stored Feed row has to
+change together with the setting. The ``blogs-subscriptions`` sidebar
+box links to the feed too, so rewrite both its raw and rendered content.
