Additional Information: [http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification RSS 2.0] is a syndication (feed) format. A [http://backend.userland.com/creativeCommonsRssModule module] has been published specifying how to include Creative Commons license information. == Examples == * Feed: http://blip.tv/?cmd=view;section=%2Fposts%2Fview%2F;s=posts;license=1%2C2%2C3%2C4%2C5%2C6&skin=rss == Specifying a License == The specification defines a namespace, xmlns:creativeCommons="http://backend.userland.com/creativeCommonsRssModule" which can be used to define a license for the feed or individual entry. An example of an RSS 2.0 file with license metadata is available at http://static.userland.com/gems/backend/rssCreativeCommonsExample.xml. == Additional Metadata == A [[WebStatement|web statement]] provides additional confidence regarding metadata assertions. [[MorePermissions|morePermissions]] allows content creators to provide a link to a URL where additional permissions, beyond those provided by the license, may be secured. The RSS 2.0 [http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification specification] provides a mechanism for [http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#extendingRss extension]; new elements must be in a namespace. Creative Commons recommends using the following two namespace declarations for inclusion of web statement and more permissions metadata: <rss version="2.0" xmlns:creativeCommons="http://backend.userland.com/creativeCommonsRssModule" xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#" xmlns:xapRights="http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/rights/" > ... The following example demonstrates providing a verification URL (web statement) as well as a URL where users may find information regarding additional permissions. <code><pre> <item> <description>...</description> <pubDate>Mon, 16 Dec 2002 12:21:08 GMT</pubDate> <guid>http://scriptingnews.userland.com/backissues/2002/12/16#When:4:21:08AM</guid> <creativeCommons:license>http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/1.0</creativeCommons:license> <cc:morePermissions>http://example.org/pay_me</cc:morePermissions> <xapRights:WebStatement>http://example.org/more_info</xap:Rights> </item> </pre></code>
