Triage Stage: Unreviewed → Design decision needed

Thanks for the patch, wangchun.

It looks valid but I'm not an expert in this area, so I'll forward to a design decision to make sure this is the way it should be done.

Needs documentation: set
Triage Stage: Design decision needed → Accepted

I thought I'd already triaged this -- apparently it was another one I just decided to do in my head and didn't get as far as the web browser. :-(

This change is fine. It's the accepted way to do this for RSS 2.0.

Needs a documentation update before it can go in (to syndication.txt).

Needs documentation: unset
Triage Stage: Accepted → Ready for checkin

Replying to mtredinnick:

Needs a documentation update before it can go in (to syndication.txt).

But I suppose this patch introduces no documentation update, since it just added a missing feature for RSS 2.0. The Atom 1.0 generator had already have such support.

Hmm... you're right. Our syndication documentation is a bit lame in that it doesn't mention which features are required/implemented for which feed types in all cases.
