Re: Explanation of other meta data?

featuretype and relationship are in the georss namespace, not the gml
namespace.

As far as whether to use a gml:Point or a georss:point, I guess
that's up to you but if you're not using any other GML and you don't
need to have things in other coordinate reference systems, then you
can stick with georss:point.

I'm sure when the "real" XML people on this list wake up, they will
either have more to say or can correct me if I'm wrong...

I think we need more examples!
