Welcome to the RSS Version 3 Specifications page. In this page you will find links and instruction concerning the RSS 3 Standard specifications and the RCDL and RRDL specifications.

Available Specifications

These are the available specifications proposed by this site. Note that the first specification, RSS 3 Lite, can be considered as a derivative of the RSS 3 Full specification, both considered as overlapping parts of the RSS Version 3 Standard. The RCDL and RRDL standards are separate, though highly related standards.

All of the following specifications comply with the RSS 3 Requirements, and it is highly recommended to read the Requirements before proceeding to the following specifications.

These are the latest specification versions available on this site:

  1. RSS Version 3
  2. RSS Category Declaration Language (RCDL) Version 1.0 (in preparation)
  3. RSS Rating Description Language (RRDL) Version 1.0 (in preparation)

Intermediate Versions

This section contains the intermediate versions between a specification's phase (i.e., Initial Draft up to Final Standard) for general consideration. Note that these are all non-normative or informative, rather than meant for embedding and implementing.
