I don't think something like this would stop people from using something
like atom or so on as their own feed system, which I find more then fine. If
servers would like to, they could even offer an automated way of creating
those types of feeds based on something like the Gemtext implementation. I
would consider this type of feature to evolve over time for which ever feed
system is chosen regardless. For me personally I think this satisfies the
'complexity when you want it and none if you dont' attitude that I find
attractive. What I am trying to avoid here is the expectation that servers
need to provide an xml based feed and the expectation that clients should
parse it.
Agreed, RSS et al are great and we shouldn't get rid of them. But theycould be viewed as an upgrade path from a basic but functional startingpoint.
