I NEED THE ELEVATOR SPEECH
That’s a business explanation in 30 seconds or less

What’s the feature, function and benefit associated with changing from RSS 0.9x to 1.0 to 2.0? How will a writer of a weblog benefit? Will more web sites be able to offer RSS feeds? Will the RSS feeds post faster from whatever aggregator is used to whatever weblog tool is used? What I’m talking about are user benefits – not programmer benefits. Are there any user benefits?

RSS 2.0. RSS 2.0 does not exist yet. It is the code name for a proposed merging of the RSS 0.9x and RSS 1.0 branches. It is basically RSS 0.9x + modules (imported via XML namespaces). RSS 2.0 is an attempt to maintain a core of simplicity (the greatest strength of RSS 0.9x) while allowing for the extensibility of decentralized module development (the greatest strength of RSS 1.0).
