Thanks. This might be interesting. My app is RDF-based, so should be able to
handle any valid RSS 0.9/1.0, and even if the app doesn't know the
particular module it can still make some sense of it from the RDF model.
I've a feeling the use of namespaces in RSS 2.0 is likely to be a problem
though, as there isn't any common model (apart from XML syntax) to work with
where the module isn't known. So far I've been using Sjoerd Visscher's
stylesheet to get the RSS 2.0 in, but I can't think of a systematic way of
dealing with unknowns, apart from ignoring them...

Cheers,
Danny.
