All the Angst Over Atom (Scripting News)

Dave adds Atom 1.0 support to his software. No big deal unless you were around in the tech industry about 7-8 years ago, and were anywhere near the RSS/ATOM flame wars. As one sage said “then again, let’s not go there. ‘Tis a silly place.” Thanks Dave!

PS. Somewhere, some aged Atom proponent is shrieking “we won!” and missing the point completely.
