Idea #10: GeoRSS Location data in the RSS feed

bug This idea is awaiting moderator approval before going to the popular ideas area.
Written by David C the 23 Jul 09 at 11:40. Category: Publishing Plings Data. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: Awaiting moderation
Rationale
We have the location data in the XML data feeds, why not add it to the RSS?

GoeRSS is pretty standard in many places now, it should be useful to people.

Solution #1: Add the location data to the feed
Written by David C the 23 Jul 09 at 11:40.
This would involve a change to the RSS format set from feeds.plings.net/rss.activity.php

The spec is here:

I can't see too many problems other than scheduling it and doing it.

It does need to be remembered that our RSS does not act like a conventional RSS feed - i.e. updating as new content/data is added, but rather as a means of transferring data.
