Thoughts and experiences from an enterprise software architect.
This is a personal weblog by Jorgen Thelin, a Senior Program Manager for Windows Live Identity Services at Microsoft in Redmond.
The opinions expressed here represent my own views and not those of my current, prior or future employer(s).
Incidentally, my updating and maintaining of an XML Schema for RSS v2.0 should not in any way be construed as lack of support for the Echo Project started by Sam Ruby. To go on record, I completely support Sam's initiative, and I do expect that project will provide the long term solution to most if not all the standardization problems we have hitting around RSS.
I also agree with Tim Bray's point - I see huge potential in something like RSS as a general purpose mechanism for streaming around structured sequences of XML fragments, with weblog postings being just the first of many interesting and valid usage scenarios.
Roll on the future.
