Hi,
A set of XSLT stylesheets is available on 4xt to translate RSS 0.9 and
0.9.1 documents into the recently announced RSS 1.0 format, together
with Java classes aimed at facilitating the transformation.
These stylesheets, which can be used separately from the associated Java
classes, are translating older RSS format (detected through the
namespaces being used) into RSS 1.0.
RSS 0.9 is translated into RSS 1.0 core, while RSS 0.9.1 is translated
into RSS 1.0 using the RSS091 module for the elements that are specific
to RSS 0.9.1.
The java classes allow to skip the access to the RSS 0.9.1 DTD to
process RSS 0.9.1 documents without network access, to force the reading
of a DTD containing the definition of the HTML predefined entities which
are allowed without DTD per RSS 0.9 specification, to improve the
presentation of the converted document and to translate the non ASCII
characters into their XML numerical representation.
A set of real world examples is presented (each .in file being input,
while the corresponding .out is the result) and RSS 1.0 feeds using
these stylesheets for 4xt (http://4xt.org/news/general.rss10) and XMLfr
(http://xmlfr.org/actualites/general.rss10) are immediately available.
These tools are available from the following locations:
http://www.egroups.com/files/rss-dev/Tools/ (download)
http://4xt.org/downloads/rss/ (browse and download)
I hope you'll find them useful.
Eric
