_Anil Dash_: XML version 1.0[1]. “Why isn't there a way to syndicate my
|
|
words without butchering the way they look?” Several people protested
|
|
last week by changing their weblog templates to something like this[2]. Jason
|
|
Levine has more links[3] to those involved. I spoke with one of the people who
|
|
implemented it, and she claims it wasn't a protest as such, more of an inside
|
|
joke. Point taken: the entire point of an aggregator (and syndication in
|
|
general) is to make everyone's words look the same. Counterpoint: the default
|
|
in most weblog systems is to only publish excerpts in RSS feeds; nobody's
|
|
forcing you to publish full posts. This would probably be a good place to
|
|
insert a Zen quote about attachment, but my mind is too fuzzy to find it.
|
|
|
|
_Timothy Appnel_: More FFKAR, RDF, and FOAF[4]. FFKAR is “the format
|
|
formerly known as RSS”. Sam has already implemented it[5].
|
|
|
|
_Nicholas Avenell_: ESF[6]. “Are you also fed up with the continuing war
|
|
between RSS 0.9* and 1.0 and 2.0 and whatever else they invent today? Me too.
|
|
So today I invented the Epistula Syndication Format. ESF. It isn't XML. It
|
|
isn't RDF. It's just data.” Sam[7] would love it, then. But Movable Type
|
|
doesn't support outputting dates in Unix timestamp format[8], which could be an
|
|
impediment to mainstream acceptance.
|
|
|
|
_Shelley Powers_: Consumer Rights and RSS[9]. “I'm not buying into RSS
|
|
0.9x. I'm not buying into RSS 2.0. I'm not buying into RSS 1.0. I changed my
|
|
RSS 0.91 and RSS 1.0 templates to read the following:”
|
|
|
|
*RSS not supported here*
|
|
|
|
This weblog does not support RSS 0.9x, RSS 2.0, or RSS 1.0. If you wish to
|
|
view entries, may I suggest that you visit the weblog, and save your fast
|
|
skimming for the New York Times and Wall Street Journal.
|
|
|
|
I'm sure this is some sort of DMCA violation or something, but here goes:
