From my point of view, if I wanted to implement RSS 2.0, I would find the Userland specification document to be very confusing, mostly because there are no simple examples of what constitutes a valid (from Userland's POV) RSS 2.0 document.

I do have what seems to be a FAQ regarding the recent RSS 2.0 discussion re Blogger and Movable Type. Dave claimed that MT created "funky" RSS. I'm guessing that's what he's referring to here when he says they refuse to do RSS Userland's way. But I've never found anywhere where Dave or anyone points out what is "funky" about MT's RSS. So my question is, Dave, could you explain what you meant by "funky"? Or could you explain what you mean now when you say Blogger and MT don't do RSS in Userland's way? Is this a technical issue? Some misplaced tags? Are they not following your published spec, or should they conform instead to RSS feeds that Userland software publishes if the spec and Userland's feeds are not in sync?
