I believe it has been discussed on this list whether there should be a namespace for RSS:

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/rss-public/message/1874
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/rss-public/message/1831

Presumably this would be for reusing RSS elements in XML other than RSS, rather than redefining existing RSS feeds or changing RSS 2.0, which would break backwards compatibility.

I think I have another good use case for there being a "recognized" namespace to use when reusing the RSS schema elements out of RSS context:

Does rssboard have a general namespace in mind?  Would it be suitable for my purposes outlined in the above blog post?  Would RSS Board like to host an xsd at the namespace URL?

Thanks in advance for your consideration.
