I want to make feeds using RSS/Maker, but I don’t want the trackback to  
[madskills.com](http://madskills.com). I can’t figure out a parameter to turn it off.

Sample code:

require ‘rss/maker’  
rss\_content = RSS::Maker.make(“2.0”) do |m|  
m.channel.link = “[http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)”  
m.channel.title = “Test”  
m.channel.description = “Test”  
end  
puts rss\_content

Results in:

\<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?\>

Test  
[http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)  
Test

I guess I could just remove it from rss\_content before I write the file,  
but  
it seems silly that I’d have to do that. This is 1.8.6.

Thanks,

Patrick
