Re: [Phpwiki-talk] rss

[Jeff D. <da...@da...>]

There are two nearly completely orthogonal branches of RSS.

 o RSS 0.9x, and RSS 2.0  (the "Dave Winer" specs) (non-RDF).

 o RSS 1.0 (a subset of RDF).

Note that the numbering scheme is not completely chronological
(nor, even, logical.)

Is postnuke supposed to be able to grok RSS 1.0?

Support for RSS 0.91 has been in PhpWiki since 1.3.3, but
it looks like the postnuke version was forked before that.
(It's accessed using a format=rss091 rather than format=rss
query arg.)

At first look, that looks like a 0.9x, 2.0 centric
validator, so it's no surprise it doesn't like RDF 1.0.
I'll look into a bit more, though... Thanks for the heads up.
