There are several standard versions of XML/RSS. We provide feeds written in versions 1.0 and 2.0. Both versions are readable by most reader applications and Web-based aggregators, and offer similar functionality.
The latest information about XML/RSS news readers are available from web search engines; for example this preconfigured GoogleGoogle search, or this preconfigured YahooYahoo search.
