RSS 1.0 has 3 standard modules

Welcome back to our short series on presenting RSS and Syndication. Today I am going to talk briefly about RSS 1.0. The reason I'm covering is because RSS 1.0 is still a format widely used to this day. If you read my other articles you already know that RSS had gone through a series of changes before settling in its present form 2.0, but the format 1.0 had a couple of aspects to it only.

At the end of 2000 a group of developers lead by Rael Dornfest had worked and finished the RSS version 1.0. This version of RSS is back to RDF feeds that previously used. In version 1.0 the extended functionality and added it was necessary to allow developers to write code to suit your needs. There were 3 basic modules included in the RSS 1.0. They are:

The Dublin Core module: includes specific data - creator, title, creation date, publisher, and so on.

The module Syndication: He gave suggestions for content distribution in relation to how often it was updated.

Module Content: This made it possible to send the actual text of an element.

Now, while all those sounds complicated, do not worry - they are. The complication of RSS version 1.0 is a major reason for the revision to 2.0 later. However, a lot of directories to accept contributions from feed by RSS 1.0 syndicated feeds and still a lot of material based off of version 1 format. And now you know what sets the version 1.0 apart from the others between the complication and the 3 main modules .......
