I'm a member of the RSS 1.0 Working Group, so I was trying not to seem too
biased. ;-) 

IMHO, the best choice is RSS 1.0. It should do everything you want, and if
it doesn't it's fully extensible so you can make it do what you want. It's
also a format that's being actively developed and has a growing support
base, so its future looks promising.

That's my personal recommendation. Best of luck,
