After the announcement by Dave Winer of some clarification on the XML-RPC side, a new effort for cleaning the RSS 2 specification :
Rogers Cadenhead anounces the launch of yet another effort to clean up the RSS specification via a profile. He initially names his effort "Site Syndication Format".[from www.intertwingly.net]
The Site Syndication Format development list is a focused, short-term mailing list for the discussion of ambiguities in the RSS 2.0 specification. The goal is to develop a new specification from scratch, code-named "Site Syndication Format," that clarifies or corrects these issues -- which can then be submitted to UserLand Software, a standards body, or published as a profile describing RSS 2.0 best practices. The members of the list should be developers who have written software that produces or consumes RSS 2.0
Actually the Cadenhead list was started before the clarification of the XML-RPC spec.
