Dave Winer's RSS 2.0

[Chris Croome <chris@webarchitects.co.uk>]

Hi

What do people think about Dave Winer's plan [1] to issue RSS 2.0
[2] tomorrow?

Is it just a matter of fixing the details as Ben Hammersley implies
[3] (I could add internationalisation to that list...) or is there a
far bigger _fundamental_ problem with the 'benevolent dictator'
appoach to the production of web standards?  

I've copied this to rss-dev for info but please follow this up on
the syndication list [4] since cross-posting is bad and the rss-dev
list is not as broad-based as the syndication one :-)
