Atom Threading, Profile URLs, and RSS Validation
We’ve just launched three additions / fixes to Blogger’s site feeds:
elements from Atom Threading Extensions (RFC 4685). These elements point from comment feed entries to the post feed entry that they’re commenting on. They’re especially useful for associating comments from the per-blog comment feed with the relevant posts.- Profile URLs in
entries. We’re now adding
elements to
elements that point to the person’s Blogger profile or homepage. This matches the behavior on Blogger’s HTML comment pages. We’re also adding these elements to post
s, but only if the author of the post lists the blog on his profile. - RSS 2.0 feeds now validate. We’ve added dummy
noreply@blogger.com
email addresses to
entries so that they validate in RSS 2.0, which requires an email address.
How are these working out for you? Let us know in the Blogger API Google Group.
