"Actually, most people who experiment with Minimal XML quickly find that it 
is easy to implement a larger subset of XML; attributes, comments, 
processing instructions, and DTD parsing pose few challenges; mixed content 
is not hard to parse but does complicate the underlying data model quite 
significantly. But this does not change the basic message of the XML 
simplification experiments. The true power of XML is the simple elegance at 
its center; those who stick to that simple core can achieve great results 
with minimal effort and still maintain compatibility with ordinary XML tools."

Note: this doesn't directly related to syndication or RSS. Being XML, 
however, it comes nigh close. Plus, it also attacks a beef of mine - 
complication. Whilst I do not dispose any of the benefits of RSS 1.0, my 
main dislike is the movement to RDF and modules. Winer's may be "low tech" 
or not commonly expandable, (or whatever the latest tiff is), but it's 
because of that simplicity that makes it "better", imo.

No flamewars. Please. Earlier this morning disgusted me.
