Ian, I'm glad other people are thinking independently. I'd like to see RSS become a publish-and-subscribe model, connecting through SOAP and XML-RPC. I'd also...

RSS is great for publish and push. In my case, I've created a set of ASP scripts that work off my RSS file to create HDML and WML files (for WAP phones) as...

I really like what I see below. I think it is essential that RSS be extensible. The use of 'about' to link separate RSS files makes the system a lot more...

Stephen, with all due respect, we have two schools of thought here. The extensibility school thinks they're right. They've moved aggressively, and call their...
