XML::RSS is a Perl module that creates and updates RSS files.

This module provides a basic framework for creating and maintaining RDF Site Summary (RSS) files. This distribution also contains many examples that allow you to generate HTML from an RSS, convert between 0.9, 0.91, and 1.0 version, and other nifty things. This might be helpful if you want to include news feeds on your Web site from sources like Slashot and Freshmeat or if you want to syndicate your own content.

XML::RSS currently supports 0.9, 0.91, and 1.0 versions of RSS. See http://my.netscape.com/publish/help/mnn20/quickstart.html for information on RSS 0.91. See http://my.netscape.com/publish/help/ for RSS 0.9. See http://purl.org/rss/1.0/ for RSS 1.0.

With the advent of RSS 1.0, users are now able to syndication many different kinds of content including news headlines, threaded measages, products catalogs, etc.
