+# Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a family of formats that describe 'feeds,'
+# specially constructed XML documents that allow an interested person to
+# subscribe and receive updates from a particular web service. This portion of
+# the standard library provides tooling to read and create these feeds.
+#
+# The standard library supports RSS 0.91, 1.0, 2.0, and Atom, a related format.
+# Here are some links to the standards documents for these formats:
+#
+# * RSS
+#   * 0.9.1[http://www.rssboard.org/rss-0-9-1-netscape]
+#   * 1.0[http://web.resource.org/rss/1.0/]
+#   * 2.0[http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification]
+# * Atom[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287]
+#
+# == Consuming RSS
+#
+# If you'd like to read someone's RSS feed with your Ruby code, you've come to
+# the right place. It's really easy to do this, but we'll need the help of
+# open-uri:
+#
+#   require 'rss'
+#   require 'open-uri'
+#
+#   url = 'http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/feeds/news.rss'
+#   open(url) do |rss|
+#     feed = RSS::Parser.parse(rss)
+#     puts "Title: #{feed.channel.title}"
+#     feed.items.each do |item|
+#       puts "Item: #{item.title}"
+#     end
+#   end
+#
+# As you can see, the workhorse is RSS::Parser#parse, which takes the source of
+# the feed and a parameter that performs validation on the feed. We get back an
+# object that has all of the data from our feed, accessable through methods.
+# This example shows getting the title out of the channel element, and looping
+# through the list of items.
+#
+# == Producing RSS
+#
+# Producing our own RSS feeds is easy as well. Let's make a very basic feed:
+#
+#   require "rss"
+#
+#   rss = RSS::Maker.make("atom") do |maker|
+#     maker.channel.author = "matz"
+#     maker.channel.updated = Time.now.to_s
+#     maker.channel.about = "http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/feeds/news.rss"
+#     maker.channel.title = "Example Feed"
+#
+#     maker.items.new_item do |item|
+#       item.link = "http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2010/12/25/ruby-1-9-2-p136-is-released/"
+#       item.title = "Ruby 1.9.2-p136 is released"
+#       item.updated = Time.now.to_s
+#     end
+#   end
+#
+#   puts rss
+#
+# As you can see, this is a very Builder-like DSL. This code will spit out an
+# Atom feed with one item. If we needed a second item, we'd make another block
+# with maker.items.new_item and build a second one.
+#
