Longhorn and RSS???

This violates all sense of design. Is this their latest attempt to make a "new OS" compelling? What would a sensible developer think about "putting RSS into Linux"? What could that possibly mean that was advantageous to *anyone*???

I can imagine putting RSS into Gnome, insofar as syndication feeds could be used as a sort of notification hub for the user, a core service that programmers can expect users to have available.

I think your bigotry has gotten in the way of your technical judgement. Heck ya it make sense to add rss support as a new assembly in the framework class library and to have it be a system for logging, communication between system, etc.

What exactly are you trying to make stick with this one?
