[georss] GeoRSS White Paper

[Marc]

Hi Everybody

I think we have to be careful not to head too much into the gisRSS 
direction. Boxes, polygons and other gis entities are certainly useful, 
but the huge majority of rss producers and consumers are playing in a 
different field. News-feeds, housing-feeds, dating-feeds, job-feeds and 
so on, all of them would be much more useful if aggregators and 
rss-reader software could filter, aggregate and group feed items 
according to 'geo' entities like country code, state, city, etc. With a 
standard for these encodings geoRSS would make a big step forward, we 
just have to be careful not to make it too complicated for the 
mainstream user. RSS is after all a 'Really Simple Syndication'.

Just my two cents.
