Hey, just noticed that the BBC has opened up the usage policy on RSS Feeds from their websites.
"But in reality, said Mr Clifton, policing all sites in any substantial way would be restricted."
'It is only right we build in some safeguards so that if they appear on sites we feel are completely beyond the pale, we can act; although we can't ever claim we are going to be watching every use of it,' he said."
<sarcasm>Kinda stating the obvious - policing the Internet? Is that the policy of the BBC? Does the licence fee pay for that? Wow - I'm glad Master Clifton understands that it isn't possible.<sarcasm />
Anyway, considering that it has taken this long, and the BBC news feed is distributed pre-installed in most RSS readers you can download... it's nice to see that the BBC is really bang up to date!
