Peace in our time

Mark is talking about RSS 2.0, adding namespaces but not RDF to RSS 0.9x. Dave is talking about adding namespaces to RSS 0.94. I’m purring.

Of course, no matter what, there will be holdouts, like the Japanese soldiers who continued fighting WWII for years after it ended, but for me the last nail went into the RDF in RSS coffin when I saw Jim Winstead saying that the whole rdf:Seq bit made RSS 1.0 too complicated annoying for him to bother using it.

Oops, confused myself. I find the rdf:Seq too confusing, Jim finds it too annoying, having to run through your items to output the list and then run through them again to output the actual <item>s.
