Encoding Content in RSS 1.0
How to encode content in a RSS 1.0 feed is an unsolved problem, many persons have made different problems and there's no consensus for a definitive solution.
content:encoded with CDATA
Example:
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What a <em>beautiful</em> day!</p>]]></content:encoded>
content:encoded without CDATA
Example:
<content:encoded><p>What a <em>beautiful</em> day!</p></content:encoded>
content:unencoded
Proposal: DanBri
Example:
<content:unencoded rdf:parseType="Literal"><p>What a <em>beautiful</em> day!</p></content:unencoded>
Others?

This model applies to all elements that allow markup: <name>, <title>, <tagline>, <copyright>, <info>, <summary>, and <content>
For entity escaped content, it is:
<content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><p>What a <em>beautiful</em> day!</p></content>
Of course, CDATA could be used for escaping in that situation too.
For literal, or inline XML, it is:
<content type="application/xhtml+xml"><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">What a <em>beautiful</em> day!</p></content>
element to specify the XHTML namespace for the children elements. Atom requires all of the child elements to be in their appropriate namespace, and convention is to use a
Note: As of Jun2004, there are proposals for modifying the content model of all elements that allow markup in Atom, the above applies to the Atom 0.3 draft.
