Yep, good idea. I can see a few in the intray: ipaddress/host (for
anon posts to Wikis etc); the ENT (Easy News Topics) RSS 2.0 extension
is in the process of being revised, and an Atom-compatible syntax is
planned; Yahoo's media object extension.

A Wiki template would be nice - have you started writing anything up yet, James?

Cheers,
Danny.

Sounds like a good idea to me.  Mind you, it's Sam's wiki :) -Tim
Heh, good point ;-) ... Sam? Ultimately it is your call.

Thinking ahead: Atom Extension Proposals on the Wiki?

2005-02-02 Thread James Snell

I'm just thinking ahead a bit on this, but I am wondering if it would
be possible for those of us interested in proposing non-core
extensions to Atom to use the Wiki as the forum for sharing proposals
for extensions once the core syntax has been finalized?  What I
imagine is a system similar to Pace proposals except using a naming
prefix such as Ext instead.  E.g. ExtLinkContentDigest or
ExtFeedEntryLicense etc.  Discussion about the proposals would be
limited to the wiki or "private" email conversations (e.g. kept off
the ietf mailing list unless, for whatever reason, it is deemed
appropriate for list discussion by the WG chairs).  Thoughts?
