RSS 2 would've been far less confusing
- eli 5y agoUnfortunately not. “RSS 2.0” is the current version of old rss
- yjftsjthsd-h 5y agoOkay, fine; call it RSS 3.0
- Woodi 5y agoBut do you ever saw newer version that is simpler ? :) With less features or not-backward-compatible or without mechanism for plugging developed in future extensions... Making complicate protocol simpler require process equivalent to rewrite in software. Re-architecture the basics. It is more then seldom to the point you can think all that complications are intentional. One example of simplification that happen in IT is UTF-8. But it was more a replacement and big companies didn't switch anyway...
