I feel that XMLNews is a little too complex for general purpose usage.
Part of the popularity of RSS is it's simplicity.

I recently proposed an enhanced form of RSS called the OCS Channel
format. You can read more at http://alchemy.openjava.org/ocs/

There is a mailing list that is currently discussing syndication
standards such as RSS, scriptingNews and OCS at
http://www.onelist.com/arcindex.cgi?listname=syndication and I'd
encourage anyone interested in XML based syndication formats to join
in the discussion.
