title: Interesting ruby-talk thread on RSS/Atom
---

<p>
<a
href='http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/120061'>Here's</a>
an interesting thread on <a
href='http://ruby-talk.org/'><code>ruby-talk</code></a> talking about
the <acronym title='RDF Site Summary / Really Simple Syndication /
etc'>RSS</acronym> module &mdash; which I'm not a big fan of &mdash;
built-in to <a href='http://ruby-lang.org/'>Ruby 1.8.x</a>.  The thread
nicely illustrates the mess that is <acronym title='RDF Site Summary / Really Simple Syndication /
etc'>RSS</acronym>, and why consistency (and coherency) in standards
are extremely important.  Interesting read.
