Thesis on syndication formats

Dear all,

I'm writing thesis on RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0 and Atom titled
"Socio-technical Issues Surrounding Content Syndication with RSS and
Atom in E-commerce". Could you please read part of table of contents
and advise other areas for investigation of syndication formats'
differences. If you suggest area for investigation, could you please
provide some explanation.  All your comments are welcome.

Regards, 
Sigitas Jakucionis
