News Standard Summit 2005 - request for a presenter on RSS

Hi everybody,

 

I’ve been asked to advise you that IDEAlliance, IPTC, IFRA and G-Sam are to
co-organize a News Standards Summit on May 24th (Tuesday) in Amsterdam, in
conjunction with XTech 2005 (24-27 May). The idea is for the news community to
exchange information on current developments on news-related XML standards, and check
if convergence is possible. 

 

The focus will be on the representation of news content (the upcoming IPTC NewsML2
and EventsML), news metadata (publication metadata with PRISM, photo metadata with
IPTC/XMP and DISC, and the introduction of RDF/OWL in this industry) and news
syndication (RSS, Atom, ICE). Case studies will help get information about real-life
needs in the media industry.

 

More information can be found on the IDEAlliance web site:
http://www.idealliance.org/news-summit/  

 

The planning committee is looking for presenters deeply involved in the development
of Atom and RSS. In 2003, during the first News Standards Summit in Philadelphia, Sam
Ruby introduced Atom and Ben Hammersley gave an interesting presentation of RSS. 

 

Now, RSS1.0 is under review and a new flavor - RSS1.1 – is proposed.

 

Would one of the RSS experts on this list be interested in presenting in Amsterdam
the latest developments on RSS (especially if you already plan attending XTech 2005)?
Note: this event is not financially sponsored, so there are no funds available for
presenters.

 

Best regards

Laurent Le Meur
