Subject: ANN: New RSS 1.0 online services and tools. From: Eric van der Vlist <vdv@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2000 15:13:40 +0200 |
The simplicity of a new technology mostly relies relies mostly on the simplicity and availability of practical tools. In order to allow the RSS authors to use their favorite tool to describe their RSS channels, the authors of the RSS 1.0 proposal are encouraging the development of simple conversion tools available both as online services and downloadable for offline use: * Dan Brickley announces a prototype XHTML to RSS 1.0 online extractor service [1]. The service generates an RSS 1.0 document using information extracted from XHTML pages. By making use of a small set of style classes [2], any XHTML page becomes an instant RSS feed. The extractor's core is a stylesheet [3] developed by Eric van der Vlist and should work with any online XSLT service. Initially, the system makes use of a public XSLT transformation server provided by W3C.

In addition to the conversion tools for RSS 0.9 and RSS 0.9.1 previously available, this new release includes the XHTML to RSS 1.0 stylesheet used by Dan Brickley's extractor and a generator using a simple text format [5] as its input source. This generator allows RSS authors to describe their channel in a user friendly plain text format using any text editor while taking care of producing a well formed RSS 1.0 document.
