LMS and EdTech platform: Apple School Manager

The feed is misrouted to a 2017 iTunes/WebKit security advisory page.

◆Current state
Entries scraped here are not Apple School Manager release notes at all — they're CVE descriptions for iTunes for Windows and WebKit on Windows 7, dating to 2017, plus boilerplate from an Apple security legal page. The published-at timestamps were rewritten to recent dates by the crawler, but the content itself is years old and unrelated to School Manager.
◆Where it's heading
No School Manager trajectory can be inferred from this stream. The signal is entirely about the source URL pointing at the wrong feed. Apple's actual School Manager updates ship through Apple Business Essentials and Apple School Manager release notes, which this feed is not capturing.
◆Prediction
Until the source URL is corrected, future entries will continue to surface legacy security advisory text rather than School Manager changes. A maintainer should repoint the crawler at the correct release-notes feed.
