http://www.tbray.org/atom/RSS-and-Atom I've been reviewing this document. The Atom tribe did a heckuva good job cleaning up and tightening the RSS-clone. I think this is a good doc to review. Comments welcome. Thanks to Tim for posting this to his blog. Watching the Schema debates and sitting on a few of the other standards lists, I am increasingly impressed with the productivity possible when wikis are employed and the amount of process is reduced to the minimum required. Even if the onlist noise ratio is high, the use of politics to determine outcomes is more reasonable, the ability to get far opportunities closer together is better, and overall, it seems to produce a better specification. Standards wonks pay heed. Money tightens in the second terms of administrations and the long term technical innovations can fade away given a tight schedule and a distempered White House. Running code and rough consensus still gets results faster. len
