Dave Winerが配信フォーマット戦争で停戦の申し入れ

RSSとAtomをめぐってDave Winerが配信フォーマット戦争で停戦の申し入れをした。Atomの開発者であるSam Rubyは統合作業がIETFの下で行われるのであれば何も問題はないと述べ，今後はIETFを通じて統合作業を進めていくことになるだろうと語っている。

Now that RSS is ascending so powerfully, I want to make an offer on its behalf. It would be easy to say that other formats don't matter, but even if I believe that, the community is better off if we have one format we're all promoting; as opposed to having continued arguments about whether "issued" is better than "pubDate". The truth is that neither is better or worse. If it works it's good.
