I've pinged RSS 1.0's authors along with several of the working group members who joined afterward. RSS 1.0 would do better, marketing wise, under the name RSS for the Resource Definition Framework (RSS-RDF). You've already got RDF in the format's name, but it's being lost in the Really Simple Syndication hype, from the looks of the Syndic8 numbers. Additionally, RDF Site Summary is a bit of a misnomer for a syndication format that does more than summarize web site content in XML. If one of the goals of RSS 1.0 is the furtherance of RDF, how does it help to be mistaken for a past version of RSS 2.0? --8RRfl35qkIXk6DXPRec2-xmNIrHB050KRLMs56o Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> </head> <!-- Network content --> <body style="background-color: #ffffff;"> <!--~-|**|PrettyHtmlStartT|**|-~--> <div id="ygrp-mlmsg" style="width:655px; position:relative;"> <div id="ygrp-msg" style="width: 490px; padding: 0 15px 0 0; float:left; z-index:1;"> <!--~-|**|PrettyHtmlEndT|**|-~--> <div id="ygrp-text"> <p>--- In <a href="mailto:rss-dev%40yahoogroups.com">rss-dev@yahoogroups<wbr>.com</a>, "Bill Kearney" <ml_yahoo@..<wbr>.> wrote:<br> > Yes you are, and no there's not.<br> <br> I've pinged RSS 1.0's authors along with several of the working group<br> members who joined afterward.<br> <br> RSS 1.0 would do better, marketing wise, under the name RSS for the<br> Resource Definition Framework (RSS-RDF).
