A RSS document. RSS is a Web content syndication format. Its name is an acronym for Really Simple Syndication. See the RSS 2.0 specification. In RSS 0.91 various elements are restricted to 500 or 100 characters. There are no string-length or XML-level limits in RSS 0.92. Processors may impose their own limits, and generators may have preferences that say no more than a certain number of items can appear in a channel, or that strings are limited in length.
