xml-dev - Megginson and XMLNews

[Robin Cover <robin@isogen.com>]

Congratulations to David Megginson for leadership and tangible
results in the 'XMLNews' application.  This looks quite
promising.

I have created some references in:

but most of the referenced documents are (canonically)
at the XMLNews Web site:

[April 07, 1999] "XMLNews Initiative Announced. Corel and
      WavePhore Support XMLNews in New Products." - "David
      Megginson, principal of Megginson Technologies, today
      announced a new initiative for news information delivery
      over the Internet. XMLNews uses the popular Extensible
      Markup Language (XML) to enable exchange of news
      information and metadata across different platforms and
      system configurations. Dr. Megginson, who chairs the World
      Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) XML Information Set Working
      Group and maintains the widely-implemented Simple API
      for XML (SAX), said that XMLNews brings together existing
      Web and Industry standards into a single package.
      'XMLNews is good news for everyone in the industry," he
      said. 'With a single standard format for all feeds, XMLNews
      will make it easier to share news all along the distribution
      chain, from reporters in the field and international press
      agencies to end-users such as news portals and corporate
      intranets'."
