Owing to the fact that XML is constantly used in distributed computing, I should probably be more interested in XML than I am.

Ed directed people to an article that seems to seems to indicate that RSS doesn’t always adhere to the standards of XML and there’s some risk that this may become a de facto standard due to use.

I should probably have understood more of the article than I did. I’ve recently survived 2 three hour lectures on XML. That being said, I haven’t used it very much.

All I can say is that I hope RSS adheres to the real standard. The less confusion the better.
