Re: Yahoo and "Media RSS"

[Danny Ayers <danny.ayers@xxxxxxxxx>]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks a little broken:

 <media:content url="http://www.foo.com/movie.mov"; fileSize="12216320"
type="video/quicktime"
    playerUrl="http://www.foo.com/player?id=1111"; playerHeight="200"
playerWidth="400"
    isDefault="true" expression="full" bitrate="128" duration="185">

The attributes aren't namespace-qualified, yet aren't defined in the
RSS 2.0 spec.

Does anyone happen to know if this being discussed on a public list
anywhere, or is syndication back in
cloak-and-dagger-then-deploy-loudly land...

Cheeers,
Danny.
