== Overview ==
-FeedParser does a great job at parsing RSS feeds but there is additional
metadata in the HTML posts in the form of comments and we'd like to parse this
out.
+RSS aggregators do a great job at parsing RSS feeds but there is additional
metadata in the HTML posts in the form of comments and trackbacks and we'd like
to parse this out.
Currently all the templating systems use the same general format for div and
class names and its possible to write a parser for them.
-We'd like to push forward an "Open Comments" system mechanism to standardize
on XHTML structure (similar to XOXO) so that RSS parsers like FeedParser can
also parse comments in HTML.
+Roughly the structure is:
+
+{{{
+
+<div class="comments">
+
+ <div class="comment-body">
+
+ Hey guys... this is my comment.
+
+ </div>
+
+</div>
+
+}}}

+We'd like to push forward an "Open Comments" system mechanism to standardize
on XHTML structure (similar to XOXO) so that RSS/Atom aggregators can also
parse comments and trackbacks from HTML.
