Via Sam Ruby Dave Winer is calling for a profile to RSS 2.0 that blogging tools could strictly comply with in order to achieve interoperability. I would have preferred that we just had a specification that resolves the issues, but I'd favor a RSS 2 profile. I proposed one when more of forking and flaming was going on last fall. The profile I proposed is not perfect, but it maintains a high level of backward compatibility with RSS 0.91 which is still the most widely used format in use. Whatever the case, this should be an interesting comments thread to follow.
Wind'em up and watch'em go.
