Talk:OPML
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is there a reason, other than a flipside to the proponents of OPML, that there is a link to troll blog post about OPML? Unless someone can argue for it, I'm going to recommend removing it from the list of external links. DClifton 07:48, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
"Crappy Crappy format", not a very encyclopaedic reference, and a bit vulgar. I concur. --Skoorb 22:26, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

With the discussion about RFC 2822 / RFC 822, what about RFC 3339 and ISO 8601?
This article seems to violate NPOV and advocate a specific approach to XML design (tags vs. attributes). Attributes are pretty widely used in data-style formats (as opposed to narrative and template doctypes). They are also useful to limit format bloat by restricting a value to simple character data (or other scalar values that may be serialized as such). If RSS had used attributes for titles, for example, the tendency to use inconsistently-encoded HTML titles might have been limited. HTML uses "title" attributes to provide simple character information available only upon request that should not interrupt the normal text flow. There is a rational balance between elements and attributes. Brianiac 15:58, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
