i'm looking for examples of embedding hCard into RSS2.0 if anyone knows of any?
#
sandbags
given the RSS embargo on non-namespaced additional tags
#
sandbags
i'm not clear what the right way would be to embed hCard type info
#
sandbags
no-one here? or dumb question?
#
singpolyma
sandbags: you could namespace it in if you wanted
#
singpolyma
it depends what you want
#
sandbags
singpolyma: i'm trying to embed more extensive author information into a feed (at the feed, rather than item, level)
#
sandbags
it's intended for machine reading, not human
#
sandbags
maybe hcard isn't the right approach
#
sandbags
i'm peering at the Dublin Core stuff looking to see what they have along these lines
#
singpolyma
look into the RDF vcard stuff
#
singpolyma
or the XML PortableContacts
#
sandbags
right now I will be both producer & consumer so as long as I make a decision won't hang me, i can live with it
#
sandbags
singpolyma: indeed i have not, i've been out of this space a few years
#
sandbags
thanks for the keywords
#
sandbags
PortableContacts looks ideal
#
singpolyma
you could look at my feed https://singpolyma.net/feed/action_stream/?user=2&full for an example of the vcard xml I use
#
sandbags
hrmm yes
#
sandbags
vcard XML certainly looks more extensive
#
sandbags
okay, i'll go with that
#
sandbags
thanks!
