This is a solved problem, but the fact that this hasn't been mentioned yet
makes me think that it's not easy to find if you don't go looking for it.

It includes the abstract, so one doesn't need to guess by the draft name
whether it's something of interest.
If anything, it might be nice to further carve up what we offer in RSS so
that you can subscribe to feeds by area or by WG, as even with RSS, the
signal to noise ratio in the couple of days before draft deadline is
almost unmanageable.
