Microsoft Proposes RSS Extension

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the keep-your-hands-offa-my-calendar dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft Chief Technical Officer Ray Ozzie said this week that his company is working on a new extension to RSS that would help users with different contact and calendar software and services synchronize each other's information." From the article: "If this sounds familiar to those using IBM's Lotus Notes, it should. SSE was conceived after Microsoft's recently recruited chief technology officer Ray Ozzie brainstormed with members of the Exchange, Outlook, MSN, Windows Mobile and Messenger Communicator product teams shortly after he joined."

  1. Microsoft, good Job. Still waiting for.... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    1) ANSI C# or IL.
    2) Purchasing a product without having to call Microsoft for permission to use it.
    3) OpenDoc support.
    4) Windows to not assume it's the only O/S installed on a computer.
    5) anti DRM.
    6) Money back on all the flawed versions of Windows I've purchased.
    7) Time and Money back for all the IE crap that has to be un-installed/fixed.
    8) A bunch more things not at the top of my head at the moment.

    Until then, respectfully fuck-off.
