RSS 1.0
Over the last few weeks I've been privileged to have followed the work of a group of developers creating a proposal for the next generation of RSS.
[O'Reilly Network: Edd Dumbill]
A public [RSS] proposal
A public proposal to add namespaces and RDF to RSS from a group of developers lead by O'Reilly Associates. If their proposal gains even modest traction we'll support it. O'Reilly is a big user of Manila, and therefore a customer. We also support diversity. As a vendor of a content management system, we have no opinion as to the artistic merits of one format over another. If it gains support on either end of the pipe, in content or in aggregation, we will support it.
