Hi,<br>
<br>
The world of RSS has been a jungle ever since it began. Last time I
checked (a couple of years ago) there were a few jots attempting to be
standards, but the reality was that every site just pushed whatever
they liked between XML tags.<br>
<br>
I'm not so concerned about this or other tool whining about
incompatibilities, as long as they're ready to display the information
correctly. I will however take action iff there is a critical mass of
users who are interested in the RSS feature, and are prevented from
using Haifux' RSS because their readers reject our XML.<br>
<br>
So Haifuxers, wherever you are: How bad is the situation for you?<br>
<br>

<div>There are a lot of free web sites which give this service free

there was some google service which dealt with it but it was closed

<div>While I tried to register with Haifux RSS feed in such sites, I
got an error, which said to check validity of the RSS feed with W3C
Feed Validation Service, which is:</div>
<div><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://validator.w3.org/feed/">http://validator.w3.org/feed/</a><span
style="color: rgb(174, 34, 33); font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 12px; background-color: rgb(253, 226, 224);"><br>

<div>And when I entered </div>
<div><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.haifux.org/rss2file">http://www.haifux.org/rss2file</a> to
that validation check in that site, I got errors.<br>

<div>Any ideas? </div>
