Extending RSS

June 28th, 2005 · No Comments

Dare Obasanjo points out that first Yahoo and now Apple have added proprietary tags to RSS in the process of adding podcasting support to their sites. I don’t believe either vetted their extensions with the community before releasing them. It seems to me that the probable solution is for the community to figure out a way to handle the functionality provided by these extensions in a standard way and then just transform the XML based on what’s requesting it.
