Well,
Should I use in-line xml and change the dtd? Or is this fast becoming an RSS issue?
example:
<news> <headLine> lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetu</headLine> <byLine>Sam I Am</byLine> <date>76Juvember2207</date> <article> <p>lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetu</p> <p>lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetu</p> <p>lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetu</p> <p>lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetu</p> </article>

We may as well do <p class="header">.
I do feel slightly unsettled using <dl> as a catch-all for anything vaguely resembling a key value pair, but can't really articulate that in an intelligent manner.... it just feels wrong somehow.
While we can argue that the date, author and article name may well be a list of meta-data for a news article the content is not... the article is the data. I think the concept of a news article is a well established one that doesn't need to be abstracted to such degree in markup. It's unneccessarily pedantic IMHO.
