This is a monumental accomplishment! Well done, Ian. The descriptions and categorisations are entirely logical and neutral. They are also stated more clearly than many of the messages I have read on this subject over the years. Nicely presented, too. :P Ian Hickson wrote: > Blogging > > USE CASE: Remove the need for feeds to restate the content of HTML > pages (i.e. replace Atom with HTML). > > SCENARIOS: > > * Paul maintains a blog and wishes to write his blog in such a > way that tools can pick up his blog post tags, authors, titles, > and his blogroll directly from his blog, so that he does not > need to maintain a parallel version of his data in a > "structured format."

Mapping my well-structured content to another file using another angle-bracket format has always seemed like an anti-pattern to me. Especially when that format is sometimes less logical, usually more complicated and always less familiar than HTML. Therefore, my blog is feedless. I saw this thread on Public-HTML, so I used the Respond link here: <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2009Apr/0208.html> -- Ben Millard <http://projectcerbera.com/web/study/>
