(2002-11-25) Rss2 Rich Client

Dave Winer is playing with RSS v2 for archiving weblogs, and Rich Client browsers (Universal Inbox) with Brent Simmons (Net NewsWire developer). The connection between the two wasn't clear to me at first, but Dave's point seems to be that RSS2 can include lots of data which isn't included in earlier RSS versions, so a Rich Client browser has more to work with.
