@w3c @seth

noticed that you all have an RSS feed which you display proudly.

i remember when RSS wasn't good enough for the W3C -- you all wanted to replace it. apparently you've given up on that.

i remember being urged to create new formats when XML was announced -- "now developers can create their own formats" -- but that came with a caveat, unless it was useful and became a defacto standard.

how about putting that in your future plan, reconciling with RSS and independent developers.
