This URL syntax works to get page 2:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor/versions/?page=2&format:rss

(meta: I was not able to use the reply mailto: of the bug due to a URL encoding error.
é should be encoded as %C3%A9 not %E9.
even with that fixed the mailto: link, as used in Firefox nightly, did not produce a reply mail. Therefor I send this manually with the references and in-reply-to field shown at top)

One way could be to put it through pandoc or something, which IIRC can convent simple HTML to markdown or rst. However I'm not sure how complex AMO changelogs can get, if pandoc supports everything, and how good it might look in all cases. It would also add a non-trivial dependency to this package. So that's why I chose to leave it as it is.
