RSS 1.0 is a syndication (feed) format. The specification was published December 6, 2000. A module specification has been published for inclusion of licensing information in the feed.

Specifying a License

RSS 1.0 is encoded as RDF/XML. A license may applied to a channel, entry or image by adding an appropriate triple. The predicate should be http://creativecommons.org/ns#license. Older deployments may exist which use http://web.resource.org/cc/ as the root of the Creative Commons namespace.

The following example shows licensing at both the channel and entry levels.

    <cc:license rdf:resource="http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/example2" />
  </item> 
</rdf:RDF>

Additional Metadata

A web statement provides additional confidence regarding metadata assertions. morePermissions allows content creators to provide a link to a URL where additional permissions, beyond those provided by the license, may be secured.

RSS 1.0 is RDF+XML, which allows additional metadata to be specified for individual objects.

The following example demonstrates providing a verification URL (web statement) as well as a URL where users may find information regarding additional permissions.


  <item rdf:about="http://c.moreover.com/click/here.pl?r123">
    <title>XML: A Disruptive Technology</title> 
    <link>http://c.moreover.com/click/here.pl?r123</link>
    <cc:license rdf:resource="http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/example2" />

    <cc:morePermissions rdf:resource="http://example.org/pay_me" />
    <xapRights:WebStatement rdf:resource="http://example.org/more_info" />

  </item>

Note that this example uses an additional namespace, xapRights, which is defined as http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/rights/.

Use with Enclosures

Enclosures (multimedia attachments to a feed) are specified for RSS 1.0 by mod_enclosure. License, verification (web statement) and more permissions metadata can be provided as with entries.

The following example demonstrates including an MP3 as an enclosure, with additional metadata about the MP3 provided.

    ...
    <enc:enclosure rdf:resource="http://foo.bar/baz.mp3" enc:type="audio/mpeg" enc:length="65535"/>
  </item>
