RDF-compliant RSS 0.9.A plague o' both your houses. My company supports
both."

Yes, I've heard a lot of people say that, but it's not true.

0.90 was not in any way RDF-compliant.

About the plague on both your houses, that's why I don't want anything to do
with RDF. It got me involved with people who think in plague terms. Yuck.
All I wanted to do was build software and content around XML, not get
embroiled in these personal reputation-trashing flamewars.
