Take a look at http://www.xmlnews.org/. This is an xml-based format for doing news syndication. Apparently a few providers are already using it. Thomas Passin From: Tim Wilson <wilson@chemsun.chem.umn.edu>

Hi everyone,

I've spend the last couple hours trying to wrap my brain around the W3C's RDF spec. I actually just finished reading Tim Berners-Lee's new book which mentions RDF.

Anyway, I'm wondering what, if any, relevance this has for Zope. Is there anyone who would be willing to offer some comments? My own thinking began as I considered how to display news headlines from different sites on my Zope site. After doing some reading I learned that RDF seems to provide some mechanism for making that easier. I really don't understand it yet, but it seems like some important work. I'd love to hear more about it from someone more familiar with RDF, XML, and related Python tools than I.

-Tim
