It’s just data

RSS schema


Jorgen Thelin: Adding in the regexp suggested by Sam for RFC-822 format dates to the RSS 2.0 schema, I have come to the conclusion that I must be missing the point somewhere... although I get the syntactic validation of the data, I have lost the semantic meaning of the schema type model.  Am I missing something obvious here?

IMHO, schema only captures higher level syntax.  Title and Description are both strings... what semantics can one infer from that?  Meanwhile, you did define a simpleType that can be profitably reused.

On a related note: Mark Nottingham is looking for a new element that had the same semantic, but was a proper W3C datetime.  This can be found in the Dublin Core module.

Are there any other types for which a regex is desired?
