Longhorn (hearts) Atom, too

Yes, we love Atom, too. :)

For the past couple weeks, we've been working full-time on implementing the RSS platform features in Longhorn. Of the many interesting features the development team has been checking in, I thought this one might be found interesting: last week, Atom support was checked in by John Lueders (one of the developers on the team). That's both 0.3 and 1.0 (based on the -09 spec) support.

That check-in completes Longhorn support for the different syndication formats. The grand total is: RSS 0.9x, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, Atom 0.3 and Atom 1.0.

However, just to set expectations, we locked down on Beta 1 of Longhorn about a month ago, so the release of Longhorn that will be public soon won't have Atom support, but the bits we'll have at PDC in September, and in Beta 2 will have it.

How extensible is it, for new specs? Is there an IRssFormatter or the like?

Can you say what media type(s) will activate Atom 0.3 processing? Does "application/atom+xml" only ever activate the Atom 1.0 processor? Cheers.

When you say "0.9x" do you mean both 0.91/0.92 (and for the truly twisted, 0.93/0.94) *and* 0.90? Most people who haven't tried to parse the whole world don't believe it, but there's still a fair bit of 0.90 (the RDF ancestor to 1.0) around: it took me a couple of minutes googling to find that without 0.90 support, you don't parse three of the five feeds from The Perl Review.

Erm... I hope you didn't implement http://ietf.levkowetz.com/tools/rfcmarkup?url=http://ietf.levkowetz.com/drafts/atompub/format/draft-ietf-atompub-format-03.txt . That's not Atom 0.3 - it's IETF Atom draft 3. *This* is Atom 0.3: http://www.mnot.net/drafts/draft-nottingham-atom-format-02.html

Did any of the RSS bits make it into Vista Beta 1? I'm thinking specifically of the Common RSS Data Store and it's associated API's.

I just don't have anything to say right now. I haven't been up to anything recently, but it's not important. I've just been sitting around waiting for something to happen, but shrug.
