Building consensus for new weblog standards.

Sam Ruby is bringing the community consensus building powers of wiki and weblogs together to help define a new syndication format, an archive format, and an editing protocol for weblogs. Sam kicked off the effort with a discussion of the anatomy of a well formed log entry, opened a wiki for group discussion, and already has reached some consensus on metadata, security, and licence information. Now he is pushing the effort forward through a series of weblog posts to futher explore some of the issues raised on the wiki. This is a very important effort, with real go-energy, and all of the right people behind it. I look forward to implementing the resulting new formats and protocols in Roller.
