You use a normal User within OAv2 and assign them rights to a specific Group - all as you normally would. That user then runs the Report on a Group using the RSS Reader. The User, Group & Report are all in the URL that the RSS Reader sends.
I have not done anything extra as far as Users are concerned. I deliberately wanted to keep it simple and use the same code the rest of the app uses. The only really new items are validating the username and password in the URL and the RSS output itself.
You _could_ set up a user dedicated to just receiving RSS feeds, I suppose. If anyone using their RSS Reader wants to log on to the web app though, they can. There are links in the feed as well though, so you can click on a RSS "article" and be taken directly to the System in question. For that reason, I would use real users and not an "RSS user" (that might be shared by a few people).
Hope that makes sense...
